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...
Wednesday, August 5, 2026
Job 31:37 I would declare unto him the number of my steps; as a prince would I go near unto him.
The number of steps is not any steps. It is walking in the way Jesus laid out for He is “the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me” (John 14:6). So, are you walking in God’s way or your way, and will your destination be that of approaching the Father or Satan?

Words Mean Things...
Thursday, August 6, 2026
Ephesians 4:31 tells us, “Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.” So, have you done these things, or do you still get overly angry with people, are unforgiving, and have little to no compassion for others? That is the difference between a Christian and a true Christian.

Evening Thought...
Thursday, August 6, 2026
Luke 21:12 But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute [you], delivering [you] up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake.
Today, we call our houses of worship by the name “churches”. Now, if people in church are going to bring up members into trials, that tells us that it is not a matter of just being a Christian to be saved. It goes far deeper than “Just Believe”. There is a stark difference. And then to go and haul these disciples of Christ off to prisons, to kings, and to rulers, is more than a minor disagreement. As Jesus said all along, “If ye continue in my word, [then] are ye my disciples indeed” (John 8:31). So, are you a real disciple of Christ living according to His Word, or are you a worldly Christian that will eventually get so upset with these Bible followers that you will be part of the group that drum up charges against them so as not to make you feel that guilty about being worldly?
