Title: Excited about the End Times? (6)
Series: Daniel
Author: Steve Lombardo
Text: Daniel (various)
Introduction
1. Well, we come to our halfway point in the Book of Daniel, and I've enjoyed our time in the Book of Daniel. Just to remind you, this is being recorded. How many of you people have enjoyed the Book of Daniel? Let's see by a raise of hands. Thank you very much. It's been a good time to be in the Book of Daniel to study the word of God from this Old Testament story, true story of the Exiles of Jerusalem, the Exiles of Israel.
2. So, Daniel 1-6, as a refresher, has been a historical narrative. That's what we've looked at. It's been the story of Daniel and his friends, young men who were taken out of Jerusalem into captivity into Babylon, who grew up and ministered among the king's court through the Babylonians but then also the Medes and Persians as they served God. They served the Pagan Kings but stayed true to their God. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego would not obey the Pagan God.
3. And yet they were thrown in the fiery furnace. God delivered them. Daniel would not obey. He kept worshiping God, praying to the Lord, and he was thrown into the lion's den. This is the story. These have been the stories that we've been looking at in Daniel chapters 1-6.
4. In the second half of Daniel, we're going to come to chapters 7-12, and this is a prophetic journal of the dreams and the visions that Daniel had during chapters 1-6. Okay, so it's a journal of what Daniel experienced in the years as he served in the king's courts through the first chapters. And so we come to this time as a kind of a halftime in the Book of Daniel.
5. What I want to do today is talk about how we look at this type of literature, which is called apocalyptic literature, in the last half of the Book of Daniel. Often called the "little Revelation" of the Old Testament, the Book of Daniel mirrors the apocalyptic visions found in the New Testament's Revelation. In ch ...
