The Faith of Daniel


Introduction:
 

         1. In Hebrews 11 we read about a number of Old Testament characters and the ways in
             which they demonstrated their faith.
         2. Through their examples they have shown us how we may:
             a. please God (vs.6)
             b. obtain a good report (vs.2, 39).
         3. In vs.33-38 we read about demonstrations of faith in which the names of the people
             involved are not revealed.
         4. In this lesson we are concentrating on an occasion when the mouths of lions were
             stopped (vs.33).
         5. Daniel was the man involved, and the details of this special event are recorded in Daniel 6.
         6. Let us first consider some important . . .
