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...
Wednesday, July 29, 2026
Job 31:31 If the men of my tabernacle said not, Oh that we had of his flesh! we cannot be satisfied.
It is better understood as saying, “Job’s servants in the house of Job never said, ‘we wish we had his meat that’s on his table for we are not satisfied with the amount of food we have.” So, evidently, Job provided enough food for his servants to be satisfied and not complain for lacking. Now, when someone works all day on your property for whatever reason, do you make sure they have enough to eat and drink, especially on a hot day?

Words Mean Things...
Thursday, July 30, 2026
Paul tells us in Galatians 6:14, “the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.” Paul was not interested in the things of the world in which money and time are wasted upon it. Now, have you made the same commitment in not participating in worldly attractions and activities?

Evening Thought...

Luke 21:7 And they asked him, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and what sign [will there be] when these things shall come to pass?
Being curious about these events is one thing, attaching a future date is speculation and turns many non-Christians off from Christianity while undermining the faith of others when the dates fail. So, are you careful to accept “of that day and hour knoweth no [man], no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only” (Matthew 24:36), or are you one that promotes date setting?
