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...
Thursday, June 4, 2026
Job 30:9 And now am I their song, yea, I am their byword.
The songs they sang of Job were making fun of his situation. The byword is using Job as a joke word, like “Jerry rigging” may be ingenious of using materials left around to accomplish something but the quality of it is usually quite poor in one form or another. That is how they used Job’s name. So, what do you do when people, usually of a childish mentality, make fun of you in song or in word? Do you “resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also” (Matthew 5:39)?

Words Mean Things...
Friday, June 5, 2026
According to Romans 12:21, retaliation should be refrained from, which is different from defending. “Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.” So, do you look for the good way to resolve or avoid a situation, or do you stoop down to their level and inflict with evil to match or exceed their evil done to you in resolving the situation?

Evening Thought...

Luke 19:42 Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things [which belong] unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.
The world has a tendency to blind the eyes and more so these days. What goes on in churches today would be appalling even to the apostle Paul. If Christians would just take a moment and compare what was in the first century church like and what they taught along with what was expected as Christian behavior, they would see how the devil has infiltrated all of the churches of today to have a party atmosphere instead of a mission. So, are your eyes hidden thinking that movie night, competitions, and other worldly activities are acceptable to God, or do you see the compromise the churches have connected with the world over and have kept yourself from those things? Keep in mind, God is not against organization, so this is not a condemnation of all churches, but do be very selective.
