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...

Job 35:1-2 Elihu spake moreover, and said, Thinkest thou this to be right, [that] thou saidst, My righteousness [is] more than God's?
It is sad the Elihu resorted to such accusations. No one’s righteousness is more than God’s. In fact, “all our righteousnesses [are] as filthy rags” (Isaiah 64:6); however, “he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous” (1 John 3:7). So, do you believe that you do not need to keep the commandments because you are afraid you are creating your own righteousness, or do you see that we are expected to live a righteous and obedient life while realizing none of it counts towards the righteousness that we receive from Christ but rather that it is Christ’s righteousness shining forth through us?

Words Mean Things...
Friday, November 13, 2026
2 Peter 1:20-21 tells us “that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake [as they were] moved by the Holy Ghost.” That means the Bible must be its own interpreter. For instance, many believe that a credit card, barcode, computer chip, or something similar is the Mark of the Beast that will control buying and selling. All of that is what humans have come up with. The Bible does not use any of those terms. In fact, when it comes to buying and selling, the Bible states, “Buy the truth, and sell [it] not; [also] wisdom, and instruction, and understanding” (Proverbs 23:23). So, will you continue to believe in a private interpretation or allow the Bible to be its only interpreter?

Luke 22:65 And many other things blasphemously spake they against him.
Now, do you speak blasphemously against Christ claiming to be a Christian but not act like one, or do you recognize what it means to be a true Christian where “Ye must be born again” (John 3:7), and hear that which Jesus said, “If any [man] will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me” (Luke 9:23)?
