After reading the entire book of Daniel, it seems to me that the first chapter is only an inrtoduction to what commitment, dedication and devotion required to endure to the end. As in the book of rev. "...He that endures to the end the same shall be saved." The question then becomes.Who should endure what and why? We should pay close attention to what JESUS SAID TO PILOT "MY KINGDOM IS NOT OF THIS WORLD" Pilot had ask,"Are you a King?" But Pilot didn't get it. His concerns were only about the things of this world. Hense he did not know nor did he understand the things of the Spirit. If you know who you are in Christ Jesus then you will realize you will suffer rejection and persicution from the world. The history given by Danial of the wars from Medo-Persian Empires through the Greco, and Roman Empires all the way through to the end times are the events of the things of the world. Danial 7:27 says "And the Kingdom and dominion,and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven,shallbe given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him." Christ left no question about the distinction of His kingdom and the kingdom of the world. A Brother And Beleiver.Roger.
