We see that God bring charges, issues a verdict, and executes the sentence against Belshazzar here in Daniel chapter 6.  We will find not only judgment, but God's grace as well, as we look at how this text applies to the world, to the life of the believer, and to God's Church.

What makes you feel secure? For Belshazzar, it was his defenses, and his wisdom.   But in this sermon we see that there is no security outside of God!

This Easter we examined the gospel message from Isaiah 53.  We saw: The savior we rejected, The death we deserve, and The resurrection we hope in.

Our concluding sermon from Daniel 4 shows us the link between discipline and blessing.  God disciplines those He loves and is working to save as well as those who are already His.  That discipline is always about changing us!  And, with discipline comes blessing for God and His Kingdom as well as for our own lives as He sanctifies our lives.

We take a look at Daniel Chapter four where we see God at work in the life of pagan king Nebuchadnezzar to use him to pour out His grace on the world, to reveal His sovereign grace over all man kind, and to give particular grace through salvation.

In the final sermon from Daniel 3 we see the effect that our witness has on the lost world when Jesus is at work in our lives.

In the second of three sermons from Daniel 3, we examine verses 16-23 to see how the three Hebrew boys were prepared to suffer for their stand on God's behalf,  and how this points toward Christ, we well as what it means for our own lives.

In Daniel 3:1-15.  We discover 1.How idols are made, propped up and their worship is commanded by men. 2. Idols are worshiped for hope of short term gain and not intrinsic worth.  3. Idols are all about self.  In this sermon we will see that Only God, is worthy or worship, and how he is to be worshiped for what Christ has already done and not for anything we hope to gain in the futu...

This is our concluding message from Daniel Chapter 2.  And in this sermon we see Christ who comes as a rock but will become the Mountain who leaves no room for other kingdoms, on earth, or in our lives.  We will also the profound meaning of a pagan king's confession that Daniel's God is the God of gods, the Lord of kings, and the Revealer of Mysteries!

In Daniel 2:31-45 we see that I. The future is frightening apart from Christ.  II. God Assigns Kings and Kingdoms, and none will last except for the Kingdom of Christ.

To conclude the expository preaching of Daniel chapter 1, we take a look at verses 8-16 to find the truth that obedience to God challenges the culture.  1.  It starts with resolve.  2.  God will make a way.  3.  The culture really believes that its way is better.  4.  A little with the Lord is better than much without Him. 

We see in Daniel 1:1-7 that the culture has 4 reasons desperately wanting to convert you.
