“Thirty Years of God’s Faithfulness”
Celebrating the 30th Anniversary of the Founding of Cornerstone

I. Those who fail to learn from history - Exodus 13:3-10
* A. Remembering the mighty act of God delivering His people from the bondage of Egypt - feast of unleavened bread & Passover
* B. A book of remembrance, God’s Word - Malachi 3:16

II. Born out of adversity - James 1:2-5
* A. When trials come we rejoice because we know that God is developing Christ like character in us
* B. Commitment to become a community of disciples who make disciples - Matthew 28:18-20

III. Helping Families Train up their children - Ephesians 6:4
* A. Cornerstone Christian Academy
* B. Defending the Family government from attacks by the Civil government
* 1. Teaching citizens the Biblical view of Law and Government with Institute on the Constitution
* 2. Preaching and Teaching the whole counsel of God - Acts 20:26-27
* 3. Proclaiming the God ordained limits on human civil government

IV. Put to the Test, Standing against Covid Tyranny - Hebrews 10:24-25
* A. The Lord of the Church is Jesus Christ not the State
* 1. The deception of 501(c)(3) and incorporation has led the church into bondage to Caesar rather than obedience to Christ - going back to Egypt
* 2. The “church” in America by and large failed the test
* a. Those “churches” revealed their true allegiance & loyalty was to the State & not to Jesus Christ
* b. This capitulation by church leaders has led many to abandon those State “churches.”
* B. Now is the time for the true church of Jesus to stand firm
