There is a growing movement of people who view these verses as the culmination of AD70 and the judgment of Jesus on Jerusalem. While there is no doubt that Jerusalem faced judgment in that day, this text, plainly read, is about the Second Coming that is yet future. Listen to how we need to be consistent when it comes to interpreting Scripture.

There is much debate on this text as to whether it is past or future, but is that the intention of the text? That the church might debate about it? While it is not unimportant, so often in the debate, we miss the primary thrust of what is being taught.

Daniel 12 is an important chapter in the Bible on eschatology. Not only does it lay out the future for us, but it also lays out so clearly how we are to live in light of that future.

The Lord chose to give Daniel a truly glorious glimpse into the future through a prophetic visit. In the morning, we covered the relevant portion regarding the future yet to come, here we cover how history proved the prophecy from beginning to end.

Daniel 11 is an amazing chapter of Scripture that details out specific events in history that can be traced so clearly. Within the church, there is disagreement, however, as to whether verses 29-45 are past or future. Do these verses refer to a past evil dictator or ruler, or a future antichrist who is yet to come? In light of Matthew 24, how should the Christian view this passage?

Many interpretations are out there on Daniel 9:24-27, but there is one big idea of this text that the church should all agree upon. Perhaps that should be the greater focus of the church on this text.

Guest pastor Joel Owen is with us, and speaks about God's plan in the local church.

God delegates human leadership for His church, and Paul is making clear to Timothy what kind of men God qualifies for His church. In this verse, we find the kind of man who should be considered for this role in the church.

Jesus tells His disciples that they must be readers who understand, as He refers back to the prophet Daniel. In order to understand the Olivet Discourse in its fullness, Daniel is a key. So we begin studying Daniel a little bit this Sunday, in Daniel 7, and see the glory of God in how He ordains all things in history for His purposes.

Paul here gives the reasons women must be restricted from preaching and teaching in churches. A very unpopular, but needful, message for our time.
