Current Lesson Series in Adult Bible Fellowship:
Staying True in a World Far from God
Synopsis: The writer of this unit of study says: “For those who grew up in church, our first thought concerning Daniel is of the king throwing him into the lion’s den. This centuries-old story highlights the world’s antagonism towards the things of God and His followers. The conflict has existed since Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit in the garden of Eden and continues today. The division between the world’s standards and God’s is not a thin line in the sand; it today is a vast chasm. The differences are seemingly becoming greater at an ever-increasingly rapid rate. Daniel in the lion’s den is but one snapshot from the life of a prophet who remained faithful when kings and companions challenged him to forsake God. The book of Daniel portrays him as unashamed, unwavering, and unwilling to compromise in his devotion to God.
One behavior that stands out is Daniel’s faithfulness in prayer. Another is his willingness to show courage. Daniel thus serves as a model for believers who want to stand strong today, despite the world’s disapproval and opposition -- or even its resentfulness and animosity. Daniel remained unashamedly faithful; we can too. Let’s dig in!
This study correlates with the first letter in our yearlong ORIGINAL study which is O. According to God’s Design, which is the ORIGINAL, there is One True Way to Live.
