Cornerstone Community - A Bible-based, Christ-centered church located in Bemidji, MN.

A people, not a building.

Welcome to Cornerstone Community church located in Northern Minnesota. We are a small Bible-based, Christ-centered, mission-focused congregation that is only two and a half years old. We believe that Jesus Christ is the Way to God, the only mediator between God and humanity. We also believe in several Essentials of Faith shared by other evangelical Christian churches.

We try to live as faithful disciples of Jesus, by staying close to Him in prayer, obeying His Word as revealed in Scripture, loving one another in the body of Christ, standing uncompromisingly for the truth of God, and reaching out with Good News and compassion to our neighbors in the world. We also believe that the body of Christ is bigger than our congregation or any one denomination, but consists of all those who have put their faith in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.

Our motto is: In essentials, unity; in non-essentials, liberty; in all things, charity.

The reason that most Christians understand...; Read Full Post An Article published on 10/19/2007 by Jack High.
