Daniel 1:1-21: Babylonian Names Don’t Erase Christian Faith
Manage episode 415828568 series 2094168
The book of Daniel begins in 605 BC with the first exiles Nebuchadnezzar took from Judah to Babylon. These initial exiles were from the upper echelons of Judean society, in a Babylonian effort to begin to assimilate the people under their culture and religion. Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah were four young men brought into the king’s palace as a part of this attempt. Although they were assigned Babylonian names, they refused to compromise to false religion in the king’s court. The LORD blessed their faithfulness before the king, showing Himself to be the true God before Nebuchadnezzar and all his pagan advisors.
Rev. Jeremiah Johnson, pastor at Glory of Christ Lutheran Church in Plymouth, MN, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Daniel 1:1-21.
"God’s Kingdom Endures Forever” is a series on Sharper Iron that goes through the book of Daniel. Although God’s people were exiled in Babylon, the LORD remained the true King. He strengthened His people for faithful confession in the face of idolatry, and through prophetic visions and dreams revealed that He would establish His everlasting Kingdom. This points to Jesus Christ, the Son of Man, who reigns over us and all creation.
