Gene Cunningham explains how Daniel's prayer in chapter 9 is a model for true spiritual maturity, demonstrating humility and responsibility as he takes on the sins of the nation, and focuses on the honor of God rather than personal comfort or national deliverance.

Gene Cunningham explains the significance of the book of Daniel, written in two languages to inform both Jews and Gentiles about God and the Savior, and how it fits into God's plan of history, including the church age and the time of the end.

Gene Cunningham teaches that God's sovereignty and man's freedom are intertwined, with Jesus Christ controlling history and the sovereignty of man given by God. He also explains the significance of the fourth beast, the Roman Empire, and the Antichrist, as well as the tribulation period and the kingdom given to the saints of the Most High.

Gene Cunningham teaches that God is sovereign, righteous, and just, yet long-suffering and not willing that any perish, and that He gives evidence to all through creation, conscience, and scripture, and invites all to come to Him, but those who reject Christ are without excuse.

Gene Cunningham teaches that the nature of truth is consistent, coherent, and correlates to life, and that the church age is a mystery not revealed in the Old Testament, but rather the focus shifts to God in heaven during the tribulation.

Gene Cunningham teaches that Daniel's life exemplifies consistency, faith, and courage in the midst of turmoil, and that God rewards courageous faith with eternal rewards that bring honor and glory to Jesus Christ.

Gene Cunningham teaches that God is always working for the salvation of all men, and His ultimate goal is redemptive, bringing people into a right relationship with Him through faith in Jesus Christ. He uses the life of Daniel as an example of faith in the face of adversity, and highlights the importance of being aware of evil masquerading as good laws.

Gene Cunningham teaches that the events of Daniel chapter 5 are a stark reminder of God's judgment and the importance of humility, and that the writing on the wall was a calculated act of contempt for God that ultimately led to the downfall of the Babylonian kingdom.

Gene Cunningham teaches that God speaks to men in a pattern of revelation, interpretation, and application, and that His long-suffering patience is based on His desire for all to come to saving faith, giving people time to respond to judgment.
