Daniels in Babylon: Reading the Writing on the WallDaniel 5

Walking with Babylon (the world):1) Indulging in the pleasures and pride of the world.2) Indifference towards God and His Word.3) Impertinence in the warnings and presence of God. (Psalm 10:6)4) Ignorance toward history and the patterns of the enemy. (1 Thess. 5:3)

The Price of Walking without Christ in Babylon:1) Our sins are numbered.2) We feel the weight of our sin and their consequence.3) We are divided from God forever if we don’t repent.

Walking with Christ in Babylon:1) Respectfully refuse the pride and pleasures of the world.2) Revel in the pleasures and promises of God. (James 1:5)3) Reverence and repentance before God in the presence of unbelievers.4) Remember the mighty acts of God over the enemy. (Psalm 33:10-11)
