Competing Kingdoms (Week 12)

A study over the Book of Daniel – Chapter 12

1. Why would an angel just stand by watching as God’s people suffer more than they have ever suffered in all of human history? (Daniel 12:1)
2. With so many in Christian circles denying hell and eternal torment, how might verse 2 help us understand God’s position?
3. What does verse 3 mean when it speaks of someone turning others to righteousness? Are we able to do that now? If so, how? (Daniel 12:3)
4. What have you learned personally from the book of Daniel?
5. When would you use the book of Daniel to counsel yourself or someone else?
