David Rauch used to be pastor of the Cornerstone Family Church in Denison, Iowa.

Four years ago, Rauch retired, and has not worked as a pastor since.

The Cornerstone Family Church teaches that non-Christians deserve to be tortured forever, because they have refused to submit to Christian authority.

The church writes: “The one who physically dies in his sins without accepting Christ is hopelessly and eternally lost in the lake of fire and, therefore, has no further opportunity of hearing the Gospel or repenting. The lake of fire is literal.”
