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 30:14 They came [upon me] as a wide breaking in [of waters]: in the desolation they rolled themselves [upon me].
Job spoke comparatively expressing all those who were against him as being a flood that caused desolation in his life. Now, despite the number of people like that, do you allow them to influence a bad attitude in you by becoming short with everyone, unkind in gestures, etc., or do you still treat people respectfully despite the fact that they do not deserve it?

Words Mean Things...
Thursday, June 11, 2026
Many take Romans 14:5 about “One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day [alike]. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. He that regardeth the day, regardeth [it] unto the Lord; and he that regardeth not the day, to the Lord he doth not regard [it]” to refer to the Sabbath commandment to justify why or why not they keep the fourth commandment and not to make a big deal about it, yet the word Sabbath is not even mentioned at all in the whole book of Romans. Reading verse 6 says, “He that eateth, eateth to the Lord, for he giveth God thanks; and he that eateth not, to the Lord he eateth not, and giveth God thanks.” This obviously has nothing to do with the commandments but put both verses together in context means the day being discussed is about the days referred to in Leviticus 23, which are the extra holy days, even extra sabbaths known as feast days. If a person respects any of them, fine; if a person does not, fine as well. That is what it refers to because certainly we do not see Paul stating, if a person commits murder, let him be, but if a person does not commit murder, also let him be. That is nonsense! So, are you persuaded to change God’s Ten Commandments over a reference of being indifferent about the feast days of Leviticus 23, or do you see the proper application towards Leviticus 23 and that it does not do away with or lessen the impact of the fourth commandment (third for Catholics)?

Evening Thought...

Luke 19:47 And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,
Do you spend time listening to Jesus daily by being in God’s Word every day, or do you think once a week church service, if that, is good enough?
