Dan


You are here: Bible > Dan

The revelation that God has given to the apostles, the testimony of the Holy Spirit through Scripture itself, the testimony of the Holy Spirit in the heart of every follower of Christ, rational (sane) thought, scientific method, and any other measure other than the creative rationalizations (insane stories) of the skeptics, all confirm the historical, material, and spiritual accuracy of every part of Scripture from the very beginning of Genesis to the very end of Revelation.

Daniel, the three Hebrew children, and Babylon.

1. Daniel taken to Babylon with the choice young men--Daniel faithful to God's laws in Babylon

2. Nebuchadnezzar's dream--all wise men to be executed--God reveals the dream and its meaning to Daniel--the dream--the interpretation, the image represents kingdoms: Babylon, Medo-Persian, Rome, God's Kingdom--Daniel is promoted

3. Nebuchadnezzar's image for unity--3 Hebrew children won't worship the image but trust God--3 Hebrew children alive with the Son of God in the fiery furnace

4. Nebuchadnezzar proclaims that all must worship the God of the Hebrews--Nebuchadnezzar's vision of a huge tree that is cut down--Daniel interprets: the Kingdom will be taken from Nebuchadnezzar and then he will be restored--Daniel advises the King to turn from sin--the vision is fulfilled: Nebuchadnezzar is full of pride and God makes him insane for 7 years

5. Belshazzar's party, defiling the temple vessels--the handwriting on the wall--Daniel interprets: judgment, tonight the kingdom is taken from you--Belshazzar killed by Darius the Mede's army

6. Daniel given responsibility for Darius--enemies of Daniel fool Darius into making a law that no one can pray to anyone except him--Daniel prays to God openly and is condemned to the lion's den--Darius tries in vain to save Daniel--Daniel is safe--Darius throws Daniel's enemies into the lion's den

7. Daniel's vision of 4 beasts--the Ancient of Days ruling--the Son of Man given dominion, glory, and a Kingdom--interpretation by an angel: beasts are kingdoms, the final Kingdom is given to the saints of the Most High

8. Daniel's vision of the ram--the little horn--the interpretation from Gabriel

9. Daniel's understanding--Daniel's intercession for Israel--Gabriel comes with a message of Israel's restoration and the 70 weeks

10. Daniel's terrifying vision--the angel--the touch of the angel--comforted by the angel

11. Persia's rule--Greece's rule--the strong-willed king

12. the end-times tribulation--resurrections--seal the book until the end time--the great time of trouble
