According to the Bible, God’s Word, those who believe in Jesus Christ as the one and only Son of God, believe that He died on the cross as an atonement for their sin, and confess Him as their Lord and Savior, are saved – and considered members of God’s family, the worldwide church.


We welcome all who hold this belief as our brothers and sisters in Christ and invite them to call Cornerstone Church | Lucas, TX their church home.
