    Daniel is summoned to interpret the writing on the wall at Belshazzar’s party. It’s not good news.

    Daniel 5:1-31 The Handwriting on the Wall Many liberal scholars have attacked the veracity of the Book of Daniel because they could not find Belshazzar’s name in Babylonian history. In 1854, British consul J. G. Taylor discovered several small cylinders written in cuneiform writing in southern ...read more

    What must we be prepared for when we share the Gospel of Christ? What examples do we have to look at in the Bible? How should these examples prepare us for whatever may come our way when we share Christ?

    Today as we talk about evangelism I want to read the entire chapter of Daniel 5 from the NLT. Daniel Chapter 5 1 Many years later King Belshazzar gave a great feast for 1,000 of his nobles, and he drank wine with them. 2 While Belshazzar was drinking the wine, he gave orders to bring in the gold ...read more

    "You have been weighed in the balances and found wanting..." It's such a familiar phrase, even Johnny Cash turned it into a hit, but what does it mean for us as Christians today? In these lesson we'll explore that and much more.

    It must have been a sight to behold; a hand that appeared out of nowhere, writing an unknown message, “Mene, Mene, Tekel, Parsin.” The very sight of the hand writing on the wall caused King Belshazzar to be overcome with fright. What was the meaning of the message? That King Belshazzar ...read more

    Belshazzar is confident and cocky. With the enemy at his gates he is throwing a party. Into this pride comes the hand of God. What is the message? You have been weighed and you don't measure up!

    Intro: When we look at chapter 5 we are seeing the second part of a trilogy of pagan kings. Chapter 4 we see Nebuchadnezzar and his repentance after God’s warning. Chapter 6 we see Darius the Mede acknowledge Daniel’s God but not accept Him. Here in chapter 5 we see Belshazzar and ...read more
