STATEMENT OF BELIEF

   WE BELIEVE...

1. A Christian University should be non-denominational and should be an environment where God’s people come to study the Scriptures and be taught the Word of God without pressure of doctrinal and personal differences. Cornerstone provide a conducive hub for learning . A willingness to accept the Holy Bible as your sole guide is first step to acceptance to CCU.

2. A Christian University should grade its students based on their ability to do their work, understanding the content of their work, applying what they have learned, but not on doctrinal differences. God is not divided, we want to be.

3. That God has believers in every church, every denomination and that no church is of absolute perfection. We all depend on the guidance of the Holy Spirit to enlighten us in the Scriptures.

4. That God verbally inspired the Scriptures (both the Old and New Testaments), which are infallible. The Scriptures are the supreme and final authority for faith and practice.

5. In the one true God, the deity of Jesus Christ, His virgin birth, His bodily resurrection on the third day after His death and in the person of the Holy Spirit.

6. In the power of the Holy Spirit of God that impacts believers to do the work of the Lord.

7. In the gift of healing, the gift of tongues, and the prophetic ministries as presented in the Scriptures.

8. That Salvation is a gift offered to man through Grace and that the conditions to salvation are acceptance, repentance, faith, and obedience to the Word of God. God does not force anyone to accept His gift of salvation.

9. That all believers should study the Scriptures to show that they are “approved unto the God” and to “correctly divide the word of truth.” Believers need also to always be prepared to defend their faith. In-depth scriptural study is the sole responsibility of each Christian. No one else should decide whether or not a Christian should study. The scripture already commands it.

10. That men are justified by faith alone and are accounted righteous before God only through the merit of the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the only way to salvation.

11. That all believers are called to a life of separation from all worldly and sinful places and alliances and unto a life of dedication to Jesus Christ. All sins (big or small) cut us off from God, unless repented for.

12. That Cornerstone Christian University is the friendliest Christian university and seminary where you can study with no worry of your doctrinal beliefs being ridiculed.

CORNERSTONE uses instructors from various denominations and their beliefs are respected as well as yours and ours. This approach makes CCU one of the friendliest university and seminaries in the nation without compromising the absolute truth. We are in the Ministry of illuminating the world with the Word of God.
