God's providence is evident in the story of the fiery furnace. Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah submitted ultimately to God's authority, they were among the few who stood for the Lord.

Do you?

Can you find Christ in Christmas? Before the beginning, God organized a plan of salvation. Students of God's Word have been looking for His coming since Eve and Adam!
