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...
Saturday, August 15, 2026
Job 32:5 When Elihu saw that [there was] no answer in the mouth of [these] three men, then his wrath was kindled.
If he was angry at the action of condemning a person without evidence, then that is righteous anger and ought to be condemned. “Be ye angry, and sin not” (Ephesians 4:26). Even Jesus expressed it when He flipped the tables of the moneychangers (Matthew 21:12). Now, do you know the difference between anger and righteous anger?

Words Mean Things...
Sunday, August 16, 2026
Paul referred to those in Christ as being “perfect” (Philippians 3:15), which is contradictory to what many Christians chant, which is that “Only Christ is perfect”. Yes, His entire life was without sin and perfect. We cannot claim that, however, “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness” (1 John 1:9) and Jesus will “present [you] faultless” (Jude 1:24). That is if from now on you have chosen to be perfect, which “Whosoever is born of God doth not commit sin” (1 John 3:9). Basically, we can live a perfect rest of our lives and be considered perfect. Even Jesus said, “Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect” (Matthew 5:48). He would not have commanded that if it were not possible. So, are you letting Jesus “make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle [you]” (1 Peter 5:10), or are you allowing yourself to remain imperfect and will be lost?

Evening Thought...

Luke 21:20 And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
Before the destruction in 70 A.D., Jerusalem was compassed with armies that eventually pulled away only to come back and desolate Jerusalem. This sign was given to guide Christ’s followers to flee for safety, as revealed in the next verse. But this has a spiritual application for those living at the end of time. When we see governments, religions, and other societal influencers uniting upon an unbiblical position and wanting to force it upon all, then we know desolation with the seven last plagues shall soon follow. That influential item is known as the Mark of the Beast. When that is implemented worldwide, desolation is soon to follow. So, are you making sure you know thoroughly the will of God as revealed in His Word, or are you distracted by the numerous forms of entertainments?
