Daniel 2
What if you could watch a video of the Big Game before the game is actually played. Wouldn’t that be something? In Daniel 2, we are shown the video of how history will end.
-
God reveals the scope of human history with a statue. The statue represents the rise and fall of various civilizations since the time of Nebuchadnezzar.
-
God reveals the hope of human history with a stone. The stone represents the Lord Jesus Christ who will stand victorious at the end of human history.
Daniel assures us that as we enter the marketplace of culture, we are the ones who will win even when victory seems somewhat remote.
