In that sermon, he exhorted his listeners, "The Lord preserved Daniel, and he will preserve you, dear friend, if you belong to 'Daniel's Band.' Its doctrines and polity are based on the Methodist model. It stresses evangelism, perfectionism, fellowship, religious freedom, and asceticism. It has historically been a rather small body, although it did experience a period of rapid growth in the late 1910s and early 1920s. During that time, it grew from 4 churches with 129 members to 6 churches with 393 members.
