What could we possibly learn from a 2,600-year-old dusty book of the Bible?

Well, hold on to your seats you're about to find out.

I'm Jeff Kinley and along with Todd Hampson here, we're the Prophecy Pros and you're listening

to the Prophecy Pro podcast. And we are so excited that you join us here today. We're going to be

talking about some really ancient prophecy that we find in the Bible and how incredibly relevant

it is for today. You know, Todd, one of the things that we talk about when people mention prophecy

is that they want to be able to look around their world and ask the question, does my Bible

say anything about the times that I'm living in? And there's an interesting verse in First Chronicles

chapter 12, verse 32, and it speaks about these men called the Sons of Izzacar. And it says they

were described as men who understood

the times with knowledge of what Israel should do. And that's one of the things that Bible prophecy

does for us. It not only helps us understand the times and really what's going on in contemporary

culture in the world, but also gives us wisdom as to know how to live and how to walk

and how we should make decisions in our lives. And so as we approach this topic here, looking at the

book of Daniel today, we're going to find out some things that really give us insight as to what's

most people think about Daniel, they think about, you know, Daniel in the lion's den, you know, you think about Daniel. When most people think about Daniel and the Lion's

Den, you know, and God shut the mouths of the lions. And it's really, you know, something we teach

our children, you know, and Sunday school or at home, you know, before they go to bed. But thereannel graph connotation of the book of Daniel with the lion's den or the fiery furnace or even Daniel in captivity as a teenager. And all those are definitely relevant, applicable, compelling things and stories we should know. But because of that, a lot of people don't even realize that literally one half of the book of Daniel is end times prophecy. And actually, eight of the 12 chapters contain prophecy. So literally, most

of the book is prophetic. Of the 12 chapters, eight of them have prophecy in them. So that's,

that is definitely a prophetic book. It was written around 537 BC. And there are several compelling prophecies in the book. It was written around 537 BC, and there are several compelling prophecies in the book

that just really, number one, prove that scripture is from God, that God predicted things
