Series: Daniel

Introduction
1. I want to show you an image. Take a look at this image. Despite what you might be thinking, these two circles are not equal in size. Which one is bigger? When you first came in here, you had the thought that they were equal, that they look the same, and you had that thought because that's true, they are the same, they are equal, they're the same. But I convinced you very easily that half of you believed one was bigger, half of you believed the other. You went along with it, proving that people are easily manipulated.
2. When misinformation is told and believed in one generation, it becomes much easier for the next generation to make it tradition, to make it understood to be the truth. We have to be careful as we live our lives in this world so that we don't get convinced of untruth and pass it on to the next generation as the truth. Our society and the kingdom that we find ourselves living in wants to say one thing which is not the truth, while we as God's people have to hold to the truth, God's truth, his ways.
3. This message is for Christians, for believers, for people who follow Jesus Christ. You follow Jesus Christ within a world system that is opposed to you and opposed to God, opposed to the truth. We read an interesting scenario right at the beginning of Jesus' ministry. Jesus was tempted by the devil in Luke chapter 4. Jesus had been fasting for 40 days. The Devil comes to him and says, if you're the Son of God, turn this rock into a piece of bread. Jesus says, man must not live on bread alone.
4. Then the devil took him up and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. He said to him, to you, I will give all this authority and their glory for it has been delivered to me, and I give it to whom I will, if you then will worship me, it will all be yours. Jesus answered, it is written, you shall worship the Lord your God and ...
