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).

Job 30:2 Yea, whereto [might] the strength of their hands [profit] me, in whom old age was perished?
Job could use the strength of the youth if they did not mock him since his strength was dwindling in his older age. Now, if you are one in the older age, do you make it pleasant for youth to lend assistance to you, and if you are a younger person, do you look to help others who are older and could use a little boost?

Words Mean Things...
Thursday, May 28, 2026
1 Corinthians 8 is about not doing what we are allowed to do because others may misunderstand and send the wrong message. It primarily used meat offered to idols as an example. Though eating meat is meaningless because idols are not really gods, Paul said it was better not to eat that meat because others who knew the meat to be offered to idols would “wound their weak conscience” (verse 12). In focusing upon the attitude of things, just because you are allowed to do something that is questionable among others, do you selfishly participate in it since nothing is wrong with doing it and think “who cares what others of the faith think”, or do you refrain yourself being careful of the thoughts of others?

Luke 19:36 And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.
Symbolically, are you willing to lay off your worldly clothing, especially as you should be sensing Jesus approaching in the form of the second coming as this world is collapsing into gross immorality, and be clothed in Christ righteousness instead, acknowledging Jesus as King of your life?
