Just as accurate Bible teaching produces spiritual maturity and the ability to discern good and evil (Heb 5:14), so false or muddled teaching will lead into evil. Learn to discern by discovering the necessity and means of sharpening spiritual faculties. Listen and read as Gene teaches these truths from the Rocky Mountain Bible Conference.

Mystery Babylon - the domination of the earth - combines two things: head of gold and worship of it - analogous to the beast and the harlot of Revelation. Power of the tongue is like a horse, a ship, fire (Jam 3:1-11). Your sin nature ignites your tongue, which ignites people and defiles others (Jam 3:6, Pro 16:27-28). Daniel and his friends are accused (Dan 3:13-15). The king didn't care about inner conviction, but wanted outer compliance (Rom 12:2). Daniel makes obedience to God the issue and are not afraid (Dan 3:16-18). Faith makes the invisible more real than the visible (Phi 4:6-7, Col 3:15-16, Heb 2:14-15). Soul has 5 parts: self-consciousness, mentality, volition, conscience, and emotion. The word of God builds up and guards the soul - they applied God's promises knowing God would deliver them from Nebuchadnezzar (Dan 3:17-18, Isa 43:2-3). Daniel and friends knew God and His essence: (1) God is Sovereign (Dan 4:35). (2) God is absolute Righteousness (Psa 145:17). (3) God is absolute Justice (Deu 32:4). (4) God is Love (Eph 2:4). (5) God is Eternal Life (1Ti 1:17) (6) God is Omniscience (1Jo 3:20).(7) God is Omnipresent. (Jer 23:24). (8) God is Omnipotent. (Rev 19:6). (9) God is Immutable (Heb 13:8). (10) God is Veracity (Psa 33:4). Daniel had faith rest (Heb 4:1-12, Mat 10:24-31, Heb 13:5-6)
