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...
Tuesday, July 28, 2026
Job 31:29 If I rejoiced at the destruction of him that hated me, or lifted up myself when evil found him:
Jesus said, “Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you” (Matthew 5:44)? So, do you do those things for your enemies as Jesus stated, or are you glad when “they get theirs” and celebrate when things collapse upon your enemies?

Evening Thought...
Wednesday, July 29, 2026
Luke 21:5-6 And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said, As for] these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
This settles the argument about a third temple. The understanding is that Israel is still God’s chosen people. You know, the ones that crucified God’s Son, and the one that Jesus said would no longer be favored (Matthew 21:43). The thought is that in the future, a third temple will be built because Jesus’ prophecy of Matthew 24:2 states, “There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.” They point to the wailing wall as evidence as it could not be the second temple but a third temple yet future, despite the wailing wall not being part of the actual temple of God but Herod’s temple. Nonetheless, look at the words of Luke. The temple in question was the one they beheld. Jesus was referring to the second temple that they just walked out of and were admiring. Jesus was not referring to a future temple. So, are you going to ignore all of the evidence and more to hold onto a false theory or theories, or are you going to go with the words of Jesus and realize the prophecy of Jesus has been fulfilled and there is no third temple?
