Mission

Cornerstone Baptist Church’s mission is to exalt Christ and to advance the “Kingdom of God” through worship that glorifies Him, as we manifest the love of Christ, through a daily ministry of evangelism and edification through personal witness, fellowship and discipleship, with the purpose to meet spiritual, emotional, and physical needs of people.

 

We strive to support the ministry of the local church in the following ways by the aid of the Holy Spirit:

1)     to walk together in Christian love;

2)     to grow with one another in Scriptural knowledge and holiness;

3)     to promote its spirituality and prosperity;

4)     to sustain its worship by regular attendance at its stated services;

5)     to submit to its discipline;

6)     to give it a sacred pre-eminence over all institutions of human origin;

7)     to financially support the church in the manner outlined in the Scripture and to
   financially bring relief to the poor;  

8)     to be set for the defense of the Gospel and to be zealous in all our efforts to
   win the lost to Christ.

 

We also engage to promote the well-being of our families:

1)     to maintain family and private devotions;

2)     to rear our children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord;

3)     to seek the salvation of our families and friends;

4)     to be just in our dealings;

5)     to be faithful in our engagements;

6)     to be exemplary in our deportment;

7)     to avoid all gossiping, backbiting and unrighteous anger;

8)     to abstain from the sale and use of intoxicating drinks as a beverage, and from
   all questionable practices, indulgences and all appearance of evil.

 

We further strive to edify the body of Christ:

1)     to watch over one another in brotherly love;     

2)     to remember each other in prayer;

3)     to aid each other in sickness and distress;

4)     to cultivate Christian sympathy in feeling and courtesy in speech;

5)     to be slow to take offense, but always ready for reconciliation and mindful of the
   rules of our Savior to secure it without delay.
