1. Nebuchadnezzar erected a golden statue and demanded all bow to worship it, but Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego refused.
2. They were reported to Nebuchadnezzar, who gave them another chance to comply or be thrown into a fiery furnace. They still refused.
3. Nebuchadnezzar had the furnace heated extra hot and the three men thrown in. However, God protected them, and a fourth figure was seen walking with them. They emerged unharmed, leading Nebuchadnezzar to acknowledge the God of Israel.

Based on "Respectable Sins" by Jerry Bridges, this lesson deals with the foundation sin of ungodliness in our lives and what it means. Ungodliness is living your life without any thought of God. Ungodliness is an easy sin to fall prey to, and one which every Christian is guilty of to some extent.
Based on "Respectable Sins" by Jerry Bridges, this lesson addresses the sins of anxiety (fear), worry, and frustration (anger). God cares about us and wants us to cast all our fears on Him because of His care for us. Dealing with these sins in a biblical fashion is the focus of the lesson.
Based on "Why I believe" by D.James Kennedy, this lesson discusses the trustworthiness of the Bible and its Author. Prophecy is telling history in advance. This lesson discusses Tyre, Samaria, and Babylon.
Based on "Respectable Sins" by Jerry Bridges, this lesson describes how we have renamed and relabeled sin so as to have sin disappear from the life of the Christian.

This lesson from Galatians 5:13-26 discusses the fruit of the Spirit, how the Spirit enables us to fulfill the law of love, to overcome the flesh, and to produce fruit. The works of the flesh and the fruit of the Spirit are contrasted to show the freedom we have in Christ
This is the first lesson in a new series based on the book "Respectable Sins" by Jerry Bridges. This lesson defines saint and sanctification and describes the struggle to live a life consistent with our state of being-a separated and set apart saint.
Based on "Respectable Sins" by Jerry Bridges, this lesson describes how vile, ugly, and destructive sin truly is. In order to truly apply the remedy for sin, we have to see it for what it is. Sin is rebellion against the Law of God, but it is also despising the Person of God.
Based on "Daniel: Standing Firm for God" by Gene A Getz and Daniel 6, this lesson examines the story of Daniel and the lion's den. This story shows us how Christians can hold true to their faith, even when their workplace is at times hostile to it.
Based on "Daniel: Standing Firm for God" by Gene A Getz, this lesson covers the events of Chapter 5. Belshazzar throws a party and uses the vessels from the Temple to praise Babylon's gods. The disembodied hand pronounces God's judgment on Belshazzar. All of us are sinners, and God still show us grace and mercy.
There are many preaching the prophecy of 2520. Personally I dont find it a time prophecy. However I find a principle of scattering and gathering a biblical principle that need to be understood by many before the final gathering - The Loud Cry (Rev 18:1-4)

"Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come , except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition. Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped so that he as God sitteth in the Temple of God. Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now ye know what with holdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work, only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then that Wicked shall be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the Spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of His coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with power and signs, and lying wonders."

In this lesson based on "Daniel: Standing Firm for God" by Gene Getz, we examine Daniel 2 and Nebuchadnezzar's dream of the giant statue. Daniel's response to the king's threat is prayer, and he gives God all the credit and glory for the answer to the king's dream.

Homily: The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity Sunday 2024.docxJames Knipper
Countless volumes have been written trying to explain the mystery of three persons in one true God, leaving us to resort to metaphors such as the three-leaf clover to try to comprehend the Divinity. Many of us grew up with the quintessential pyramidal Trinity structure of God at the top and Son and Spirit in opposite corners. But what if we looked at this ‘mystery’ from a different perspective? What if we shifted our language of God as a being towards the concept of God as love? What if we focused more on the relationship within the Trinity versus the persons of the Trinity? What if stopped looking at God as a noun…and instead considered God as a verb? Check it out…

Renewed in Grace
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

1. TRIED BY FIRE
DANIEL 3:1-30
BASED ON DANIEL: STANDING FIRM FOR GOD BY GENE A. GETZ
2. SELF-CENTERED GRATIFICATION (3:1-6)
• Over a period of about two or three years, Nebuchadnezzar
forgot about his declaration in Daniel 2:47.
• V.1 He sets up a statue 90 feet tall and 9 feet wide.
• V.2-3 He calls all his officials together for the dedication. This
would include the four Hebrew children.
• V.4-6 When you hear the music, you had to turn and worship
the statue or be thrown into a furnace.
3. • Nebuchadnezzar had already become the gold head of his
previous vision in Daniel 2:38. Verse 4 proves it.
• Ruling wasn’t enough; he wanted to be worshiped.
• Nebuchadnezzar had never given up his pagan gods; he simply
acknowledged that Daniel’s God was greater than his.
• V.7 When the music started, everyone fell down and worshiped.
• Hundreds or perhaps thousands of people participated, but
three did not: Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Exodus
20:4-6
• These three already had positions of great authority, and there
was a great deal of pressure to participate, but they refused.
4. JEALOUS RETALIATION (3:8-12)
• Obviously, they were seen and reported. In all likelihood, those
that reported them did so out of envy and jealousy and were
thrilled at the chance to put these young upstarts in their place.
• Where was Daniel?
• No one knows, but he was ruler over an entire province of
Babylon. He could have been out of the area or possibly in the
king’s court and simply nowhere near the statue.
5. • V.13-15 Nebuchadnezzar flew into a rage like he did in
chapter 2.
• He was objective enough to give Shadrach, Meshach, and
Abednego another chance because they were some of his most
valued officials.
• His pride prevented him from letting them go, so he reiterates
the penalty in verse 15.
• V.16-18 These three Hebrews stood their ground and answered
the king confidently, directly, and – to be honest – bluntly.
• V.19 Nebuchadnezzar loses it and orders the furnace heated 7
times hotter than normal.
6. • V.20-21 He had them tied up so there was no chance to
escape.
• V.22-23 the flames were so hot the soldiers who threw them in
were burned to death.
• V.24-25 Nebuchadnezzar immediately notices that even
though his men were immediately destroyed by coming close to
the fire, the three Hebrews were still alive in the midst of the
flames.
• Then he sees a fourth man in the fire. This fourth man is Jesus
in the Old Testament!
• Since they weren’t tied up anymore, Nebuchadnezzar ordered
them out of the furnace.
7. • These three walked out of the fire without a singed hair, burnt
thread, or even the smell of smoke.
• Nebuchadnezzar acknowledged that no other god could save like the
Hebrew God.
• He decreed that anyone how spoke ill of God would be killed and
their home destroyed.
• V.30 They get yet another promotion!
• We aren’t told how they reacted, but it would be difficult to not love
God more and serve Him even more faithfully after such a dramatic
rescue!
• God revealed His glory to some of the most significant unbelievers in
the world through three 20 year-old men who determined to serve
and worship God and Him alone.
8. 1. GOD ALWAYS HONORS OUR FAITH, BUT HE
DOES NOT PROMISE HE WILL ALWAYS DELIVER US
FROM PHYSICAL DEATH.
• They knew God was able to save them if He wanted to (v.17).
• Philippians 1:20
• Hebrews 11:37-39
• James 5:14 Even though we pray in faith for physical
restoration, God is still sovereign.
9. 2. NO MATTER THE OUTCOME, AS CHRISTIANS
WE SHOULD NEVER COMPROMISE OUR FAITH BY
WORSHIPING OTHER GODS.
• Philippians 2:19-20
• Romans 1:16
• When Polycarp, a disciple of the Apostle John, was given the
chance several times to recant his faith, he faced death
triumphantly knowing that he would be delivered from this
world to meet Jesus face to face. He was burned to death by
the Roman Emperor.
10. 3. WHEN A CHRISTIAN IS THREATENED WITH
PHYSICAL DEATH, HE WILL ALWAYS BE
DELIVERED – EITHER TO LIVE LIFE ON THIS EARTH
OR TO EXPERIENCE TOTAL FREEDOM IN HEAVEN.
• Paul knew he was going to die when he wrote II Timothy 4:6-8.
• Being threatened with heaven really isn’t much of a threat!
• There are a lot of ways I would prefer not to die, but death really
doesn’t frighten me because I know that joy is coming in the
morning!
• If you still fear death because you don’t know Christ as your Savior,
come talk to me and I will show you from the Bible how to know
heaven is your eternal destination.
