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)

Random King James Bible Verse...
Galatians 3:21 [Is] the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law.

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...

Job 35:3 For thou saidst, What advantage will it be unto thee? [and], What profit shall I have, [if I be cleansed] from my sin?
Many Christians ask the same question of what does it matter if I confess my sins or not? They ask especially thinking they are saved no matter how worldly they become afterwards. What it profits is that only “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9). If we stop confessing our sins, the forgiveness stops as well (Psalms 86:5). And when forgiveness stops, then the sins remain (Hebrews 10:26). And when they remain, we shall be destroyed instead of welcomed into the kingdom (Revelation 21:8). So, are you ceasing from sinning and confessing where you have sinned so Jesus can “present [you] faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy” (Jude 1:24)?

Words Mean Things...
Sunday, November 15, 2026
Many Christians have it backwards. The preachers are teaching the congregations that we are liberated from the law since it has been nailed to the cross, been replaced by grace and faith, and whatever other excuse they come up with. In all honesty, “While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage” (2 Peter 2:19). To have true liberty, Jesus said, “the truth shall make you free” (John 8:32). And just in case you are not making the connection, Jesus also said, “Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin” (John 8:34), which is another way of saying the word “bondage”. So, are you breaking the ten commandments or are careless when it comes to obeying His law and are not really at liberty but in the bondage of Satan, or has Jesus set you free as you continue in His law?

Evening Thought...

Luke 22:66-67 And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying, Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:
Some people just cannot believe the truth, in fact, many Christians “with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved” (2 Thessalonians 2:10). People who claim to be saved and do not love the truth or even believe the truth will be lost. Now, do you have the truth, or do you not believe in a single truth?
