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 32:1 So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he [was] righteous in his own eyes.
So, the three men tried to declare Job to be a sinful man, and Job examined the evidence of his life opening up to finding where he was sinning and found no occasion, but his friends turned around and basically declared that there was no hope for Job because he was appearing to be “righteous in his own eyes” or “self-righteous”, which is to declare oneself righteous while being a practicing sinner. Does that mean we are to be purposely sinning to avoid the stigma? Of course not! “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” (1 John 3:9). And the Bible says, “Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous” (1 John 3:7). So, when the unconverted accuse you of being self-righteous, do you ask them to reveal the sin that is being covered up, or do you excuse yourself and join them in the worldly ways just to fit in?

Words Mean Things...
Monday, August 10, 2026
Ephesians 5:20 encourages us to be “Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.” So, do you give thanks to God when all things are going well but also when all things that are not going well?

Luke 21:16 And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and [some] of you shall they cause to be put to death.
These are the only two sides that we shall be facing in the last days. People will be so defensive of the government rules, even though they are unbiblical, that they will be willing to hand you over because you are standing firm on the Word of God since you chose to “obey God rather than men” (Acts 5:29), or you will probably be handing people over to authorities by reporting them thinking you are serving God. Not knowing God’s ways is a big factor, and His ways are revealed in the Bible that is studied according to Isaiah 28:9-10. The worldwide issue several years ago proved that people were willing to hand even family members over. On which side were you? And if you were on the wrong side then, have you made any changes for any future crisis?
