Daniel Lesson 16: Fiery Furnace Tests of Life {No Burning!} The Caldwell Commentaries Podcast
-
- Religion & Spirituality
The grande finale! You DO NOT want to miss this exciting end to the account of Hananiah, Azariah, and Mishael, who were cast into the fiery furnace for their stedfast obedience to God's command to not bow before any other "god". Lo and behold, they were not instantly "turned to toast"! In fact, they were so completely protected and preserved from the flames of great tribulation, there was not even the smell of smoke upon them! Their greatest blessing, however, was that they enjoyed fellowship with none other than the preincarnate Son of God, Who was in the furnace with them!
Did you know those three Hebrews are picture-types of the 144,000 sealed, believing Jews of the "fiery furnace" Tribulation days? Where was Daniel in this story? Why wasn't he among the three who would not bow to an idol (the Antichrist will also set up an idol of himself and force the world to bow to it)? For sure, if Daniel had been there, he would not have bowed or budged - and then, like his friends, he would not have burned. Daniel was not present because he pictured believing Jews of the Church, and the Church will not be thrown into the fiery furnace of the Tribulation Period on earth (see our podcast on the Rapture, under the tag "Revelation and End Times").
