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 31:24 If I have made gold my hope, or have said to the fine gold, [Thou art] my confidence;
Do you make any monetary collection your hope or your confidence, or is your hope (Psalms 71:5) and confidence (1 John 3:21) in God?

Words Mean Things...
Friday, July 24, 2026
Since Galatians 3:29 states, “And if ye [be] Christ's, then are ye Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise” then are we not God’s favored people also and not the physical nation of Israel made up of anti-Christians, atheists, and secularists, or do you really think after crucifying Jesus that today’s “descendants” are still God’s favored people ignoring the fact that Jesus Himself said, “The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof” (Matthew 21:43)?

Evening Thought...
Friday, July 24, 2026
Luke 20:45-47 Then in the audience of all the people he said unto his disciples, Beware of the scribes, which desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief rooms at feasts; Which devour widows' houses, and for a shew make long prayers: the same shall receive greater damnation.
How dare Jesus embarrass these scribes in public! Actually, in addition to Jesus being God among us (Matthew 1:23) and can do whatever He likes, there is a Bible principle that us ordinary people are also to follow. “Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear” (1 Timothy 5:20), and that is against leadership that are found guilty (1 Timothy 5:19). Most ministers today fall in this category and need rebuked. Unfortunately, the pew warmers love their ministers and will not do it because they love to be told they can live worldly and still go to Heaven. So, do you get upset with a church member who brings attention to false teachings thinking they should just sit there and keep quiet, or do you yourself make sure what is preached and taught is truth bringing to attention to others when they are in error?
