In Daniel 3:1-30, the friends of Daniel refuse to worship Nebuchadnezzar’s statue and are thrown into the fiery furnace. Pastor Paul van Engelenhoven preaches the refusal to worship the world’s images, the willingness to suffer for holiness, and the nearness of Christ to those who walk in holiness.
“Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who has sent his angel and delivered his servants, who trusted in him, and set aside the king’s command, and yielded up their bodies rather than serve and worship any god except their own God.”
