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 31:15 Did not he that made me in the womb make him? and did not one fashion us in the womb?
Job acknowledged that all come from the same source God. No matter what walk of life we happen to find ourselves, rich or poor, different abilities, etc., we are all answerable to the same Creator God. So, are you making sure you have the proper answers?

Words Mean Things...
Tuesday, July 14, 2026
According to 2 Corinthians 8:12, we need not worry about all the material things or the lack thereof to have a relationship with God. Even the number of spiritual gifts does not matter. What we need is a willing mind to cooperate with God. For if there be first a willing mind, [it is] accepted according to that a man hath, [and] not according to that he hath not. So, is your mind willing to be led of God into right paths to dwell in (Proverbs 4:11)?

Evening Thought...

Luke 20:29-33 There were therefore seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and died without children. And the second took her to wife, and he died childless. And the third took her; and in like manner the seven also: and they left no children, and died. Last of all the woman died also. Therefore in the resurrection whose wife of them is she? for seven had her to wife.
People spend so much time looking for arguments, loop holes even to disprove a belief and will go to extremes to prove their case, but do they ever consider that doctrines cover the usual situations and God will deal with those apparent ones that seem to be confusing? To try to figure out how God is going to deal with those unusual situations is playing God. So, when you see a doctrine in the Bible different from what you were taught or believed, do you look for ways to dismiss it based upon unusual circumstances, or do you leave those unusual circumstances to God and believe His Word?
