Our Philosophy of Teaching
Cornerstone Bible Institute was prayerfully established to train disciplined believers whom the Bible describes as Servants, Laborers and Soldiers of the Cross.
Our Lord taught the disciples of His day to be servants, and He demonstrated the truth He taught. "For even the Son of Man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give His life a ransom for many" (Mark 10:45). Servants are noted for having duties for which they must give account to their master. The need for discipline in fulfilling our duties is obvious in all of us, and being accountable for our actions does not come naturally to any of us. Productive servants must be trained.

Jesus said, "The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few." In his appeal for laborers for the great unreached land of China, the missionary statesman Hudson Taylor said, "Our work is a peculiar one…. If you wish for luxury and freedom from care…. do not join us. China is not to be won for Christ by self-seeking, ease-loving men and women. Those not prepared for labor, self-denial and discouragements will be poor helpers in the work. In short, the men and women we need are those who will put Jesus, China and souls first and foremost in everything . . . Of such men and women, do not fear to send us too many."
Cornerstone Bible Institute is looking for men and women who have committed themselves to train for ministry. We, like Mr. Taylor, believe that our Savior deserves our best and unashamedly challenge our students to this high calling in Christ Jesus.
