God's Unfailing Purpose: The Message of Daniel
ISBN: 9781932307047Where is God?
This is often the question of skeptics, scoffers and even troubled souls. Trials and tribulations of one sort or another crowd our personal lives, while corruption, conflict, and catastrophe command the world scene. Indeed, where is God in all of this?
God's Unfailing Purpose: The Message of Daniel is a cautious and biblical answer to the question, 'Where is God?' This book focuses on the heavenly throne from which God rules according to His perfect will and unchangeable, unfailing purpose. God is in absolute control of all things: the big issues of the world, as well as the seemingly bigger issues of our lives. Daniel's view of history and prophecy shows that God's kingdom is coming and that God's will is being done on each as certainly as it is in heaven.
Daniel's message is simply, "Not to worry - everything is under control."
