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...
Tuesday, May 19, 2026
Job 29:20 My glory [was] fresh in me, and my bow was renewed in my hand.
When Job was sitting with boils upon himself and after losing everything, he remembered his glory days and readiness for whatever challenges were before him, of which seem not to be able to have anymore. Now, when you are struck down, do you wallow in the thoughts of yesterdays, or are you “forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before” (Philippians 3:13)?

Words Mean Things...
Wednesday, May 20, 2026
According to Romans 6:7 and 20, the Bible tells us that we should not have sin in our lives. “For he that is dead is freed from sin. For when ye were the servants of sin, ye were free from righteousness.” More directly, 1 John 3:9 states plainly, “Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he cannot sin, because he is born of God.” Now, do keep in mind, “My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous” (1 John 2:1). All is not lost if we have an oops moment, which is different from a way of life. So, are you free from sinning and have Christ’s righteousness, or are you still allowing sins in your life and are free from having Christ’s righteousness?

Evening Thought...

Luke 19:29 And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called [the mount] of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,
A lot of activity happened around the Mount of Olives including this very specific mission. Now, we do not have to contribute to Jesus’ first coming, but He sends Christians today with the gospel in their mouths. Are you one of them who have been sent, or are you seeing what you can get out of the world and talk about worldly things?
