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...
Thursday, March 27, 2025
Job 13:18 Behold now, I have ordered [my] cause; I know that I shall be justified.
So, Job has collected the evidence and is about to present it, which will vindicate Him. If that would only happen in today’s world. It seems the justice system ignores the evidence and the innocent are found guilty way too often, or the guilty get off way too often. It is just the signs of the times. “Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” (Isaiah 5:20). Now, are you seeing this as another sign that Jesus is coming back soon and He will set the record straight?

Words Mean Things...
Thursday, March 27, 2025
Revelation 14:7 says, “Fear God!” Job 28:28 says, “And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that [is] wisdom; and to depart from evil [is] understanding.” Sinning is evil (Galatians 1:4). And “sin is the transgression of the law” (1 John 3:4). So, do you fear God and understand that all sinning needs to cease in your life, which means that it is expected for you to keep God’s commandments, or do you really think God provided a way for you to enjoy sinning guilt free?

Evening Thought...

Luke 10:4 Carry neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes: and salute no man by the way.
This is total reliance upon generosity with urgency, so much so that there is no time to stop and chat with people along the travels. So, how are you in relying upon the generosity of others to survive, or do you try to make provision for every aspect of your life to the point you have to be in control of all matters?
