While they believed God had the power to save them, they were going to obey him whether he chose to save them or not. They trusted God to do what was best instead of just what they wanted.

Pride is the greatest barrier to salvation.<br />Thanks as always for your thought-provoking comment and words of encouragement.<br />God bless,<br />Laurie Laurie Colletthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10676088158113572565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8901842915517693862.post-79496766026348813142016-06-19T04:45:47.116-07:002016-06-19T04:45:47.116-07:00Dear Laurie,
The fiery testing of those three witn...Dear Laurie,<br />The fiery testing of those three witnesses is the only such case recorded in the Bible, other than a bush surviving a fire when God appeared to Moses. Whether King Nebuchadnezzar was truly saved after such miracles is hard to say, as was the case of Pharaoh when Joseph interpreted his dreams for him, or for that matter, King Darius after releasing Daniel from the den of lions. Then not forgetting Paul's testimony to both Felix and Festus. Are people in authority really that hard to convert? After all, the purpose of all miracles recorded in Scripture is to bring the onlooker to faith in God. Especially that of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abdenego, I think was the most dramatic miracle other than Lazarus' resurrection in public, and Jesus' own resurrection.<br />An excellent post, God bless.Frank E.
