As we look at Daniel 6 we see that there is a new king, and a new kingdom in town. However God quickly proves He is still in control as Daniel faces a trial-by-ordeal in the lion's den.

In Daniel 5 we see the last co-regent king of Babylon (Belshazzar) looking for a fight with God. He gets one, but ends up wishing he hadnt!

In Daniel 4 we see the great heights that king Nebuchadnezzar made it to during his life, we see how he got there (by God's hand) and how God humbled him in order to show the king, and all people, who is truly in charge.

As we look at Daniel 3 we see a great reminder that, no matter what person, place, or thing we are tempted to worship, God Himself is the only One worthy of our full attention, devotion, praise... and we see 2 reasons why that is so!

In Daniel chapter 2 we see how the wise men let the king down, a prophecy that the king and his kingdom will eventually let them down, but we also see a God who knows all things who will never let you down!

As we look at the narrative of Daniel 1, centering around the Fantastic Four (Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego) not eating the kings rations, we see that God has no less power in Babylon than He does in Jerusalem!

Bro. Don Hollis and Bro. Zach Kilpatrick sit down for a talk through these deep and meaningful verses. This lesson was originally video recorded to serve as a virtual Sunday School lesson at Mt. Zion.

For one of our Wednesday evening virtual lessons Bro. Zach looked at the life of King Josiah, and how it provides some of the backdrop for the book of Daniel.

We look at the major players in the book of Daniel, the nations, kings... where they are, why they are there. And we are also reminded of the beauty of the Gospel as we see a picture of the wrath that we deserve, that Christ took in our place!

As John ends his letter he shares several reminders that bring great calm and assurance to Christians, and that should bring a great sense of urgency to those that are not.
