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...
Sunday, June 28, 2026
Job 30:28 I went mourning without the sun: I stood up, [and] I cried in the congregation.
Sunless days are depressing. Lack of support from a congregation is most disappointing even driving a person to cry out. Now, when the sun does not shine in your life, do you complicate matters by indulging in destructive behavior, or do go to God’s Word and prayer for strength?

Words Mean Things...
Sunday, June 28, 2026
People rising from the dead, be it in spirit or body or some other means, was not believed even among Christians; otherwise, 1 Corinthians 15:12-14 would not be a big deal. “Now if Christ be preached that he rose from the dead, how say some among you that there is no resurrection of the dead? But if there be no resurrection of the dead, then is Christ not risen: And if Christ be not risen, then [is] our preaching vain, and your faith [is] also vain.” Rising from the dead is a big deal because it does not happen on a regular basis. Moses was resurrected (Jude 1:9) while Enoch (Genesis 5:24) and Elijah (2 Kings 2:11) went to Heaven without seeing death. Those who “came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many” (Matthew 27:53) are also a special group. Therefore, Satan is using “seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils” (1 Timothy 4:1) to prove and teach that people go to Heaven and hell upon death, and it is ingrained in most churches too negating the grand resurrection that Jesus spoke of where “the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation” (John 5:28-29). So, are you deceived even by the appearance of dead loved ones, which are spirits of devils, or do you believe Jesus’ words that we wait until “every man in his own order: Christ the firstfruits; afterward they that are Christ's at his coming” (1 Corinthians 15:23)?

Evening Thought...
Friday, June 26, 2026
Luke 20:14 But when the husbandmen saw him, they reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir: come, let us kill him, that the inheritance may be ours.
This attitude inspired of Satan is completely illogical. The one Who declares “I give unto them eternal life” (John 10:28). Satan cannot give it. An angel cannot give it. So, to do away with God means that all life would cease if the overthrow were to have been successful. Likewise, the inheritance is not transferrable. So, to kill the Son of God does not mean the inheritance is now in possession of the killers. But, are you thinking logically and accept Jesus as your life giver, or do you not think so deeply upon these important issues?
