Modern liberal revisionists can't stomach the view that Daniel correctly prophesied a variety of events that occurred decades and centuries after his time, so they have invented the notion (following the 3rd century A.D. pagan Porphyry) that Daniel was written by an imposter in the 2nd century B.C. who duped ancient Jews into thinking his …
Daniel’s Fulfilled Prophecies, Postmodernism, and Walking with Jesus Today
King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon had a dream around 600 years before the appearance of Jesus, which he struggled to interpret. He summoned the insights of magicians, sorcerers, astrologers, and enchanters, expecting them to interpret his dream without giving them any details about it. They protested, telling him that no one could ever interpret a dream …

When and WHY Did the Sanhedrin DEMOTE Daniel the Prophet?
In the Christian Bible, Daniel is listed with the Prophets, yet in the Jewish Tanakh, Daniel is listed in the Writings (Kesuvim), not in the eight books of the Prophets (Neviim). The Jewish Tanakh is divided into three categories: the five books of Moses (Torah): Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy; the eight books of the …

Did the Author of Mark NOT Believe in Jesus’ Divinity?
The original version of the Gospel of Mark may have ended at Mark 16:8. This point is not disputed by Christians as multiple versions in English of Mark’s Gospel explicitly state that the earliest manuscripts and some other ancient witnesses do not have verses 9-20. Atheists use this point to claim the author of Mark …

Did Daniel Try to Dupe Us?
Biblical skeptics like to make the argument that “Daniel got the history wrong,” which STRONGLY implies that Daniel tried to dupe us when they assert later dating of his Biblical book. I will present examples from this argument along with refutations. Who is Belshazzar's father? Daniel referred to Belshazzar’s father as Nebuchadnezzar (Daniel 5:13) and …
When Was the Book of Daniel Written?
According to some, the “scholarly consensus” on the dating of Daniel is that the book of Daniel was written in the 2nd century B.C. Such a consensus makes me wonder about whether scholarship is controlled by people who are skeptical of the supernatural inferences in Daniel’s prophecies. Accordingly, I will address the literature on this …
The Biblical Prophecy that Changed the World!
The prophet Daniel lived between 605 B.C. and 530 B.C. He and his fellow Israelites were captives in Babylon under the King Nebuchadnezzar. After correctly explaining one of King Nebuchadnezzar’s dreams, he was given a position of power under him. He often prayed to God while in this position and the Lord gave him numerous …
