Daniel Series, Part 3 of 8 - Descent into Selfishness
By Todd Beiswenger
Ut pergas pasco dum audis, audi in fenestra nova.
In this story, we are told of King Nebuchadnezzar's dream of a large statue that represents kingdoms to come. While some have speculated as to which historical kingdoms this dream refers to, it can also refer to how our thoughts can devolve into selfishness. God saves us with His truth - the uncut stone - that smashes this statue.

as well as those who were troubled by unclean spirits, and they were being healed.
