Message 7: Daniel: His Life and Prophecies
Daniel 1-12
Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon captured Jerusalem in the 3rd year of Jehoiakim king of Judah (2Kings 24:1-4; Dan.1:1), at which time many Jews were taken into captivity, including the young man Daniel. What makes the life, ministry and message of Daniel unique is that he lived and spoke entirely from within the context of captivity in Babylon. We see a devout young Jewish man navigating how to live out his faith and convictions in a climate entirely hostile and opposed to his beliefs, morals and convictions.

Daniel feared God more than he feared man, and he would not budge on his convictions, regardless of the consequences.
