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...

Job 31:1 I made a covenant with mine eyes; why then should I think upon a maid?
And Jesus said, “That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart” (Matthew 5:28). So, have you made a covenant with your eyes not to look sexually upon another human being?

Words Mean Things...
Thursday, July 2, 2026
If a person thinks because they are saved that sin something not needing to be avoided, a deception is happening. Those who even think that the moral Ten Commandments have been done away with ought to remember, “sin is the transgression of the law” (1 John 3:4). And if we do away with the law of Ten Commandments, then sin does not exist and we do not need saving from our sins. On the contrary, Paul wrote, “Awake to righteousness, and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God: I speak [this] to your shame” (1 Corinthians 15:34). Such people thinking sin does not matter do not know God. This is further confirmed by John, who wrote, “these things write I unto you, that ye sin not” (1 John 2:1). Allowance for sinning, even in little things, was not taught by the apostles, but is taught today by almost all preachers “turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness” (Jude 1:4). So, are you listening to those preachers who go light on sin or do not even mention the word, or do you listen to preachers who teach to be avoid sinning?

Luke 20:18 Whosoever shall fall upon that stone shall be broken; but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder.
Are you willing to fall upon the cornerstone and have your life all broken up because you follow, which means to obey, the doctrines of Christ causing people to distance themselves from you, maybe even causing a change of employment and career path, or are you wanting to stay worldly and when Jesus returns, you will be part of the group that say, “mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb” (Revelation 6:16) and be crushed to powder?
