Cornerstone Church,The Sacrifice of Fools No fools will be sacrificed in the exposition of this verse, but we would like to point out a few things.Ecclesiastes 5:1 (NKJV) Walk prudently when you go to the house of God; and draw near to hear rather than to give the sacrifice of fools, for they do not know that they do evil.It would be foolish to sacrifice an unacceptable offering, as when Esau brou...  Read More

Cornerstone Church,Creepers! Jude 1:4  For certain men have crept in unnoticed, who long ago were marked out for this condemnation, ungodly men, who turn the grace of our God into lewdness and deny the only Lord God and our Lord Jesus Christ. It gives me the creeps just to think of it! Somehow, unbeknownst to anyone, a sneaker and creeper can get past all the barriers and locks. They can enter the...  Read More

Cornerstone Church,Showdown Throw DownExodus 4:1-5  1Then Moses answered and said, "But suppose they will not believe me or listen to my voice; suppose they say, 'The LORD has not appeared to you.'" 2So the LORD said to him, "What is that in your hand?"

Cornerstone Church,This past Sunday in our study of Exodus 1, we saw the midwives of the Israelites refuse the order of the mighty Pharaoh of Egypt.  Fearing the people of God, Pharaoh ordered all the children to be killed.  We read in Exodus 1:17, "But the midwives feared God, and did not do as the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the male children alive." The fear of God superseded fear o...  Read More
