Daniel 10-12
(Reading 10:1- 8, 12:5-13)
1. Don’t be put-off by this ‘strange’ part of the Bible
2. Consider Daniel’s point of view (and remember all we’ve read in chapters 1-9)
– Daniel is given a look ‘behind the scenes’
– at what will happen to ‘his people’ (10:14)
– and told to patiently continue to the end (12:13)
3. Perhaps consider the historical perspective
4. But take to heart our Christian perspective
– this vision shows again that God is sovereign
– and God is working to a plan
– so we patiently continue to the end…
Preacher: Steve Blencowe
