John tells us that the truth is something we know, something that lives in us, and something that we walk in. What does he mean, and how does understanding it allow us to show God our love to Him?

As we finish out the book of Daniel we see a glorious glimpse of the eternal life to come for all believers, what will take place before that time gets here, and are reminded of the overarching theme of the book.

In Daniel 10 we begin the final section of the book. Chapter 10 introduces the final vision that will encompass chapters 11-12 and also gives us a clear glimpse into the ongoing battle between God and evil forces in the heavenly places!

Last week we saw Daniel praying and asking for God's mercy. This week Bro. Zach finishes chapter 9 by looking at God's response to Daniel.

Spoiler alert: God reveals to Daniel what the end of time will look like!

As we turn our attention to Daniel 9 we spend our first week looking at Daneil's prayer, the rich theology found in it, and see how it reflects the Mosaic covenant and foreshadows the New Covenant to come though Jesus Christ.

In Daniel 8 we see Daniel being given a vision about a Ram with lopsided horns, a Goat with a large horn between its eyes, and a small horn that grows up.

In this we see a prediction about Persia, Greece, and a strong ruler that lifted himself in opposition to God, and learned that is not a good idea!

There are several titles in Daniel's 1st apocalyptic dream, but their imagery isn't immediately clear. Bro. Zach looks at the interpretation given by the angel in the dream to help us understand the point of this text.

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.
