- pastor Dennis Leonard (Heritage christian Center in Denver, Colorado, the US)





Daniel 3:14-17 (KJV)
Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them,Is it true, O Shadrach, Mechach, and Abednego, donot ye serve my gods, norworship the golden image which I have set up? Now if ye ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; will: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that Godthat shall deliver you out of my hands? Shadrach, Nechach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar; we are not careful to answer theein this matter. If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.
