God’s Plan for the Natons (or the ABCs of Bible Prophecy)
We will be taking a break for a while from 2 Samuel. This week we will be looking at Daniel 2 which sets forth God’s plan for the nations. I was drawn to this text in light of our nation’s recent celebration of Independence Day. Daniel 2 puts the greatness of our nation and all other nations into perspective. Daniel 2 also presents an overview of eschatology with which we all can agree (whether pre-mill, a-mill, post-mill, or pan-mill (it will all pan out in the end)) and profit. How blessed we are to be a part of a kingdom which is glorious and everlasting.
