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...

Job 34:31 Surely it is meet to be said unto God, I have borne [chastisement], I will not offend [any more]:
So, do you repent because you have been chastised by God, which a lot of times is in the form of consequences, or do you repent because it is sinful and purposeful sin “crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put [him] to an open shame” (Hebrews 6:6)?

Words Mean Things...
Wednesday, November 4, 2026
“Dearly beloved, I beseech [you] as strangers and pilgrims, abstain from fleshly lusts, which war against the soul” (1 Peter 2:11). And if there were no consequence, like the loss of eternal life, then why the warning? Of course, all is not lost. “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). However, that is not to be a way of life where a Christian indulges in gluttony, binge watching, wasting money on things that make them feel good, etc., all of which are fleshly lusts, and then confess to our Advocate living day after day enjoying the fleshly lusts and then confessing them at the end of the day. We are to give all to not sinning for we are to “love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind” (Matthew 22:37). So, are you abstaining from things of this world or enjoying them thinking you are already saved or that you will just confess it later, after you enjoy it?

Luke 22:57 And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.
We can deny Jesus as well as “They profess that they know God; but in works they deny [him], being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate” (Titus 1:16). So, are you saying you are a Christian but are disobedient denying Jesus in your works, or are you obedient to His commandments out of love (John 14:15) for Him saving you?
