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 32:10 Therefore I said, Hearken to me; I also will shew mine opinion.
Do you despise youthful opinions as Elihu admitted to being much younger than everyone present, or are you willing to give ear and evaluate honestly what a young person has to say?

Words Mean Things...
Friday, August 21, 2026
A lot of Christians try to use Colossians 2:14-16 to eliminate the Ten Commandments, yet those verses has nothing to do with the Ten Commandments. “Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; [And] having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath [days]: Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body [is] of Christ.” The Ten Commandments are not ordinances, were not put in place against the people (Deuteronomy 31:26), and definitely not written by human hand (Exodus 24:12). Just because the words “Sabbath” appears in the list, all other items point to the feast days, an honest soul who reads Leviticus 23 will see those items in the chapter plus certain feast days identified as Sabbath days (Leviticus 23:24, 32, 39) but floated during the week just like a birthday, certain holidays, etc. So, are you an honest reader of the Bible and see that the book of the law with its feast days were nailed to the cross because Christ died as the Passover Lamb (John 1:29, 36), became our unleavened bread (1 Corinthians 5:7), was the first fruits (1 Corinthians 15:20), sent the Holy Spirit on Pentecost (John 14:26, Acts 2:1-4), etc.; or do you just have the knee jerk reaction and declare the Ten Commandments on stone (Exodus 24:12) were nailed to the cross allowing you to live worldly and even participate in sin but still get to go to Heaven?

Evening Thought...

Luke 21:25 And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
We are definitely living in the time of distress with the nations, which are in perplexity impacting the world as opposed to the skirmishes of the past, which were pretty much localized. A number of things have occurred with the sun, moon, and stars including UFO sightings. As for the sea and waves roaring, we have seen numerous years of very destructive hurricanes, tsunamis, and other watery destructive activities. Are you seeing these things, or do you really think we have not even begun to experience these things?
