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...
Thursday, June 25, 2026
Job 30:27 My bowels boiled, and rested not: the days of affliction prevented me.
Job’s issues included having days where things burned down below and he felt the constant need to go to relieve himself but often, nothing happened to settle the pressure. It was at the point that nothing was being accomplished. It was very difficult to get into doing anything, even that of sleeping, because of the constant need to go but fearful because it burned severely. So, what do you do in those situations where the day is wasting away? Do you get yourself worked up and stressed, or do you try praying to keep yourself calm through it?

Words Mean Things...
Friday, June 26, 2026
In 1 Corinthians 12:28, Paul gave a list of gifts for the church. “And God hath set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.” By the use of the words “first”, “second”, and “third”, we have importance provided for us. That means that speaking in tongues is the least likely needed gift in the church, yet it is a test of fellowship in many circles of Christianity today. Besides, “tongues are for a sign, not to them that believe, but to them that believe not” (1 Corinthians 14:22). So, if your church practices speaking in tongues as a regular activity and inside the church, have you considered leaving it as a different spirit is actually in charge and it is not the Holy Spirit, or do you think it is perfectly fine that the whole congregation is speaking in some unknown tongue all at once bringing excitement to believers for a good time?

Evening Thought...

Luke 20:13 Then said the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son: it may be they will reverence [him] when they see him.
Now, unlike those leaders of Israel, the husbandmen, do you reverence the Son of God better known as Jesus, or do you reject Him like the leaders of Israel did by not believing upon Him nor His Word?
