THE STORY OF DANIEL THE PROPHET

                                             Stephen N. Haskell


                 “But go thy way till the end be: for thou shalt rest and stand in thy
                                   lot at the end of the days.” Daniel 12:13.





                             “Conscience in regard to the things of


                                 God is a sacred treasure, which no


                                  human beings, whatever be their


                              position, have a right to meddle with.


                             Nebuchadnezzar offered the Hebrews


                           another chance, and when they refused


                                   it, he was exceedingly angry and


                             commanded the burning fiery furnace


                            to be heated seven times hotter than it


                                was wont to be heated. He told the


                             captives that he would cast them into


                             this furnace. Full of faith and trust, the


                            answer came, Our God whom we serve


                           is able to deliver us; if He does not, well:


                            we commit ourselves to a faithful God.”
