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 30:20 I cry unto thee, and thou dost not hear me: I stand up, and thou regardest me [not].
Ever have the feeling that people do not listen to you, and when you raise your hand or stand to your feet, you are overlooked? Job felt that God treated him that way, which God wanted to intervene and let Job know that he was not forsaken, but then Satan’s test would have become null and void proving Satan’s accusation against God were correct. Now, God knew that Job would not give up his faith and allowed the test to occur, but it broke God’s heart to see His servant going through these struggles and the wrestling in the mind. Now, would you give up on God, or would fight to cling unto Him?

Words Mean Things...
Thursday, June 18, 2026
From the writings of Paul who appears to be all about grace and shuns any works involved in salvation stated, “And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they [do it] to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible” (1 Corinthians 9:25). To strive is to work at it. Evidently, Paul was not about being all grace and no works. Basically, the saving part is purely grace for “by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified” (Romans 3:20). However, grace is not wasted on those who allow sin to continue in their lives “For not the hearers of the law [are] just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified” (Romans 2:13). So, do you use grace to continue even in worldly living thinking Heaven is still your destination, or do you realize that grace is granted to those who obey God’s Ten Commandments who made mistakes along life’s journey and chose to sin needing a Savior and have repented of your sins?

Luke 20:6 But and if we say, Of men; all the people will stone us: for they be persuaded that John was a prophet.
Now, in regard to John the Baptist, do you accept that he was Heaven sent, or do you want to take the position that “the chief priests and the scribes” “with the elders” (Luke 20:1) wanted to take ignoring all of the Bible prophecies regarding the messenger that was to arrive at that time?
