Daniel: Jesus is the 4th Man in the Fire

Dick Paisley · Listen

Sermon Questions Daniel 3:19-30

1. Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego refused to bow to the king’s idol.  What idols do we bow to in our own lives?

2. In spite of their fear the three men did not abandon their faith in God and their integrity.  Think of times in your own life when fear of consequences has compelled you to abandon trust in God and sacrifice your own integrity.

3. Does that really make sense in light of the Lord’s power and glory

4. Who do you believe was the fourth man in the fiery furnace? 

5. Can you think of other old testament stories that like this one point squarely at the Lord Jesus and salvation?

Empowered Baptism is recognized throughout the Church as the beginning of a ‘God thing.’ John’s baptism was a visible demonstration of the start of a new life — clearing out the junk to prepare for what God was about to do. Jesus’ baptism reveals the true heart of baptism: God’s desire to bless and express His delight. The baptism of the Holy Spirit is the start of the Kingdom. Ordinary women and men were now filled with the Spirit of Jesus to continue on the ministry Jesus started.

Luke 3:21-22 -At Jesus’ baptism, the Father said, “You’re my son. I love you. I’m proud of you.” As Christians, our baptism is a sign that we are in Christ, that what is true about him is true about us, and that the Father’s blessing now defines us.
