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 34:3 For the ear trieth words, as the mouth tasteth meat.
We are to listen and then test with the scriptures if what we heard is truth, like the Bereans did (Acts 17:10-11). To taste the meat of the word is to experience it and then speak of it (Revelation 10). So, are these the things you do, or do you not even listen to God’s Word through any preacher?

Words Mean Things...
Wednesday, October 7, 2026
Hebrews 10:4 tells us “[it is] not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins.” That is because the only blood everyone from Adam until the end of time are saved by is that of Jesus. Even obedience does not save us, including keeping God’s commandments; however, Jesus does not waste His blood on those who want to continue to be careless, worldly, and disobedient (Romans 2:13). So, do you accept the blood of Christ alone for your salvation and recognize that it is the only means by which even Old Testament people are saved, or do you think we are special now living after the cross and we can live worldly by the encouragement of Jesus’ blood covering even willful sin (Galatians 2:17 – “God forbid”)?

Evening Thought...

Luke 22:32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
Have you thought about Jesus praying about you that your faith would not fail? Also, notice that conversion and not just belief is necessary and if belief were all that was necessary, why would the brethren be needing strengthened? They all acknowledged Jesus to be the Messiah! That is because just saying the words and doing churchy things is not salvation. “My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth” (1 John 3:18). So, how much do you appreciate that Jesus is praying for your faith not to fail and that for you to “endure unto the end, the same shall be saved” (Mark 13:13)?
