Who Are the Three Most Underrated Believers in the Old Testament?

October 2, 2025 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Daniel, Ezekiel 14:14, Ezekiel 14:20, Job, Noah

I think most of us would list Abraham, Moses, and David as the top three OT saints. After all, Abraham was the first patriarch of Israel and OT example of justification by faith alone. God called Abraham, “My friend” (Isa 41:8). Moses gave up the riches of Egypt to deliver the nation of Israel from

You Can Keep Them (Daniel 5:17)

January 22, 2020 by Ken Yates in Blog - Babylonian Empire, Daniel, Eternal Rewards

We all know the stories about Daniel. He was a faithful servant of the Lord during a trying time in Israel’s history. He had been taken captive when he was a teenager and lived the rest of his life in Babylon. When we get to chap. 5, Daniel is a man in his 80s. The

Jesus’ Last Week in Light of Daniel 9:25-26

August 8, 2019 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Daniel, Matthew, Prophecy, Temple

After centuries of promising to send a Messiah, God finally gave a concrete timeline in Daniel 9:24-27 for when He would come. And vv 25-26 give us specific information about what would happen to Messiah at that time: “Know therefore and understand, That from the going forth of the command To restore and build Jerusalem

Everlasting Salvation in Daniel

April 25, 2018 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Daniel, eternal life, Kingdom, Messiah, Prophecy

Was it normal for Jewish people to believe that God’s salvation is eternal? Was it normal for them to think of the coming Messiah in “eternal” terms? Was everlasting salvation on their radar? Consider some verses in Daniel. Daniel prophesied about a coming kingdom. How long did he say that kingdom would last? “In
