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 30:31 My harp also is [turned] to mourning, and my organ into the voice of them that weep.
Once again, we have depression from the experience Job was going through, but when things around you seem depressing, do you look for ways to express your depressing thoughts, or do you realize that such focus serves only the purpose of causing further depression and avoid giving such utterances?

Words Mean Things...
Wednesday, July 1, 2026
In 1 Corinthians 15:31, Paul stated, “I protest by your rejoicing which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.” So, do you go around rejoicing in being saved while you participate in worldliness and even a bit of sinning without remorse, or do you die daily by “deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me” (Matthew 16:24)?

Evening Thought...

Luke 20:17 And he beheld them, and said, What is this then that is written, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner?
This refers to when they were building the temple and rejected a stone that became the corner after all just like Jesus being rejected and would become the cornerstone of what would become Christianity. “The stone [which] the builders refused is become the head [stone] of the corner” (Psalms 118:22). “Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner [stone], a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste” (Isaiah 28:16). So, do you reject the cornerstone as in Jesus, or do you believe you are “built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner [stone]” (Ephesians 2:20)?
