Let's Be Like Daniel...
Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house; and his windows being open in his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime. (Daniel 6:10)

Basic Belief
This site is a non-denominational site not just being Bible based but solidly Bible structured.
We believe that we are saved alone by Jesus who "came into the world to save sinners." (1 Timothy 1:15).
But we also believe that he commanded us to "go, and sin no more" (John 8:11)
This is not in our strength but Jesus is "able to keep you from falling, and to present [you] faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy" (Jude 1:24).
We do believe that all of us are in ignorance to the full knowledge of God's ways, however, "the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent" (Acts 17:30).
And if our hearts are ever in love with God, then we should not be guilty of Jesus' words. "And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil" (John 3:19).
To find out what we should and should not do, we believe we are to "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth" (2 Timothy 2:15).
Concluding there is a right way and many wrong ways to study, we use the method of "precept [must be] upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, [and] there a little" (Isaiah 28:10), which means that we pick a topic, collect all the verses and in so doing, we have God's Word and not our opinion.
And we believe that "All scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works" (2 Timothy 3:16-17). Notice we are to learn from the scriptures to live righteous lives.
Intead, all we here is condemnation of any such thought, despite James writing, "Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works" (James 2:18).
In short, we are not saved by works but our works show evidence we are saved for we believe "to whom ye yield yourselves servants to obey, his servants ye are to whom ye obey; whether of sin unto death, or of obedience unto righteousness" (Romans 6:16).

Morning Thought...

Isaiah 30:3 Therefore shall the strength of Pharaoh be your shame, and the trust in the shadow of Egypt [your] confusion.
To gain strength from Pharaoh, which spiritually is all of the “leading experts” that speak contrary to God’s Word, and followed up with the shadows of Egypt, especially today’s media that simply confuses the issues, shame and disappointment will be the result. Shame because heaven will have been lost. So, where is your trust? In those of this world or God?

Words Mean Things...
Friday, January 24, 2020
We live in such an anti-Christian time that is beginning to compare with the persecutions of the dark ages. It seems that every worldly way can be presented to the public without people getting worked up, but be it a Christian thing and lawsuits fly. Even Christian literature sent through the mail is no longer just considered junk mail, which is so annoying in itself, people actually get worked up trying to put the sender in their place. There is no tolerance among many for Christianity and the sentiment is growing. So, does that cause you to give up the commission that Jesus commands all Christians to do, which is preach the gospel anyways (Mark 16:15), or are you faithful in your deeds?

Evening Thought...
Friday, January 24, 2020
Matthew 15:14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch.
We cannot be going around arguing the truth with everyone that starts up an argument with us. Let them alone. They are blind. Search for the one that is curious. Search for the one that is open. And then study with them. So, are you choosy of how you spend your God given time, or do you just argue your point with everyone who comes at you?
