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, April 21, 2026
Job 28:23 God understandeth the way thereof, and he knoweth the place thereof.
God knows the way for godly wisdom; therefore, we need to trust the pathway laid before us headed for Heaven, the place of godly wisdom. Now, are you willing to stay on the path towards godly wisdom turning neither left or right off the path (Proverbs 4:27), or do you think you can be your own trailblazer blazing a different path?

Words Mean Things...
Tuesday, April 21, 2026
Twice in one chapter and three times overall, instruction about meat eating was given to the early Christian church: “But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and [from] fornication, and [from] things strangled, and [from] blood” (Acts 15:20, 15:29, 21:25). Now, if you eat meat, do you avoid all meats in which the animal was strangled and abstain from eating meat with the blood still in it; or do you ignore these references since cooking up meat with blood in it makes it tasty and no one seems to be following these instructions anyways?

Luke 19:4 And he ran before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that [way].
What lengths will you go to connect with Jesus? Zacchaeus did not care what people would think of an adult climbing a tree that acknowledged his shortness. Are you willing to suffer humiliation for Jesus?
