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...
Sunday, June 28, 2026
Job 30:28 I went mourning without the sun: I stood up, [and] I cried in the congregation.
Sunless days are depressing. Lack of support from a congregation is most disappointing even driving a person to cry out. Now, when the sun does not shine in your life, do you complicate matters by indulging in destructive behavior, or do go to God’s Word and prayer for strength?

Words Mean Things...
Monday, June 29, 2026
According to 1 Corinthians 15:20, it says, “now is Christ risen from the dead, [and] become the firstfruits of them that slept.” Yes, Moses was risen from the dead first (Jude 1:9), but we are not going to into details of how Jesus can still claim to be the firstfruits. The point is, death is a type of unconscious sleep, and from Abel, the first to die, until Jesus, with the exception of Moses, all who died did not come up in any form to go to Heaven or Hell. There is no spirit, outside of the breath of life (Ecclesiastes 12:7), nor soul, or even a ghost that goes anywhere. That is called spiritualism, which is of the devil and found in pagan religions. Since, the time of Jesus, everyone continues to sleep unconsciously (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18). So, do you believe Jesus to be the firstfruits and we are waiting for the grand harvest to go to Heaven (Revelation 14:14-15), or do you believe in spiritualism?

Evening Thought...
Monday, June 29, 2026
Luke 20:16 He shall come and destroy these husbandmen, and shall give the vineyard to others. And when they heard [it], they said, God forbid.
And in 70 A.D., it was destroyed physically and that means Israel or the Jews are no longer God’s favored people. God has given the gospel responsibility to a new people. They are called Christians. So, are you still hung up on Israel in that you think they are still God’s special people, or do you believe the Word of Jesus who said that they would lose their status after they killed the Son of God and given to what is referred to as Spiritual Israel?
