Daniel 2:24 to 3:23 Daniel tells the King the dream and interprets what the statue represents: the kingdoms to follow him, including an everlasting kingdom! Then the King creates a statue to be worshipped and the Three Young Men refuse!

Daniel 1:8 thru 2:23. Continuing with the set up; 5 "secrets" of surrendering to the Divine Will that we learn from Daniel; the introduction to the King's dream; and the amazing character of this young man!

Daniel 1:1-7 The intro, the history, the names, with focus on the Chaldeans, Typology, and Maps to lay the foundation!

Beautiful and powerful, this letter SHOWS us how a Christian is supposed to maneuver difficult issues in their world. A GREAT peek into the early church with history, practice, belief... an awesome way to close out the series on Paul's Prison Epistles!

St Paul touches on several practical issues that he deals with in his other letters, demonstrating how to live as Christians. Then he closes his letter with some fascinating names of key New Testament players!

Colossians 2:11-3:10 Looking at Baptism and Circumcision, the Old Gnostics and the New Gnostics of our day, any false teaching that doesn't follow Christ FIRST, the wrath of God...

Colossians 1:24 to 2:12. A lot of time is spent on verses 24 and 25, then St. Paul warns them as he often does to beware of the false teachers. He contrasts the deity of Jesus and what he has revealed to the "traditions of men." Ouch. This one might sting a little!

Another LOADED study from St. Paul's colossal letter! More on the sacrifice of Jesus, the Christ-hymn of Colossians, Jesus as God, creator, sustainer, reconciler. Introduction of the very difficult passage in 1:24.

Colossians 1:1-14, Introduction, background, St. Paul's greeting, redemption, sin, ransom, punishment, Father's wrath, atonement, mercy, love... WOW there is a LOT to digest!

Chapter 4: Rejoice! Think about these things! The Lord is near! Trust! Surrender! St. Paul gives us the handbook for how to live our lives in Christ!
