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 29:22 After my words they spake not again; and my speech dropped upon them.
Job certainly did not speak foolishly but with authority. The effect it had upon the listeners was in the form of leaving them speechless and knowing that powerful words were dropped upon them. So, what do you talk about, and does it have the same effect as Job had upon his listeners?

Words Mean Things...
Friday, May 22, 2026
When we sin, that means sin controls us, or as the Bible says, “reigns”. Romans 6:12 tells us to put up a resistance: “Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.” So, how is that resistance going, or are you just going along with what is acceptable in society?

Evening Thought...

Luke 19:31 And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose [him]? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him.
This is part of the instructions given to Jesus’ disciples who were to bring a colt that was tied up to Jesus. Jesus has need of things greater than animals. It is us. When we become a true Christian, it is not for socializing and having a good time. It is to be sent out to spread the gospel in one form or another until the whole world hears it. “And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come” (Matthew 24:14). That is not a minister’s job only, and it is not just any gospel. It is the “everlasting gospel” (Revelation 14:6). This task is for everyone to perform in whatever role they can play. So, as Jesus has need of you, are you responding with fulfilling that need?
