Daniel 3:13-23
Furious with rage, Nebuchadnezzar summoned Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego to him, gave them one more chance to worship the image of gold he has set up. He said what god will be able to rescue you from my hand?
They replied to the king, "O Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you in this matter. If we are throw into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to save us from it and he will rescue us from your hand, O, king. But even if he does not, we want you to know, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up."
These men, wearing their robes, trousers, turbans and other clothe, were bound and thrown into the blazing furnace. The flame of the fire killed the soldiers who took up them, and these three men, firmly tied, fell into the blazing furnace.
Why?
These three men have firm faith in the God, obeyed the Law of God. It is against the command of the Lord.
King Nebuchadnezzar furious with rage, with his own arrogant. The Lord saves his people from those arrogant man and honor His name.
They believe the Lord will deliver them from a terrible death; they do not know if he will. But come what my, they will not deny him. They do not fear.
Daniel's companions will not compromise There is only one God, and God's law forbids them to worship any other. (Exodus 20:3)
How?
The Lord save his people, his children, in His will. Even he does not, we believe it is good to us. For it is a temporary place on the earth, we will have more better place in heave. Do I have the faith to the Lord as these three men? I confess that I haven't so strong as them, may the Lord gives me more faith as them.
