Between Sundays: Equipping with Doctrine

"Daniel: Chapter 7" Pt. 1

In this episode of Between Sundays: Equipping with Doctrine, Pastors Zack Gibson and Will Thompson we dive into Daniel chapter 7, unpacking the symbols of the four beasts—a lion, bear, leopard, and the terrifying fourth—that depict unstoppable world kingdoms. You'll discover how scripture interprets scripture to identify biblical truth versus man-made doctrines. We explore how empires like Babylon, Persia, Greece, and Rome foreshadow the rise of the antichrist, tying prophecy to current events and false teachings, including the Catholic doctrines of worship, salvation, and the papal authority. We break down the importance of rightly dividing God's Word, demonstrating how to distinguish genuine biblical doctrine from counterfeits that threaten to mislead believers—whether through tradition, church councils, or apocryphal additions. Whether you're a Berean hungry for truth or a seasoned Bible student, you'll gain practical tools to test spirits, defend your faith, and grow in spiritual discernment during these critical end-times days. This episode isn't just about understanding prophecy; it's about understanding our role as vigilant followers of Christ—armed with scripture—not man’s opinions. Perfect for pastors, laypeople, and anyone weary of spiritual compromise, you'll walk away with a renewed appreciation for the precision of God's Word and the urgency to stand firm on biblical truth. This is part 1 of 2.   Great Resource on understanding the Book of Daniel: “Daniel” – Clarence Larkin ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://a.co/d/0jhYfvcM [https://a.co/d/0jhYfvcM]

Daniel in the Lion's Den

Most Christians are familiar with Daniel’s remarkable faith in the lion’s den — but few understand the deeper lessons behind his unwavering stance. In this episode of Between Sundays: Equipping with Doctrine Pastor’s Zack Gibson and Will Thompson delve into how Daniel’s continual obedience and abstinence from the appearance of evil set him apart in a corrupt society, even when it cost him everything. Discover how his example isn’t just a story of courage but a blueprint for Christians living in today’s world, where compromise often seems easier than conviction.   Zack and Will also break down why Daniel’s integrity in the face of deadly laws teaches us to maintain our witness regardless of social pressure. You’ll discover how the enemy’s tactics mirror modern deceptions—attacking doctrines, distorting scriptures, and turning the church into a battleground of “church hurt.” We explore how refuting false doctrines and clinging to biblical discernment can protect you from being manipulated by worldly philosophies or religious legalism.   Zack and Will also examine how public deception and church abuse are weaponized by the enemy to weaken believers’ confidence and obedience. Living with integrity isn’t just about avoiding sin—it’s about proactively abstaining from even the appearance of evil, guarding your testimony, and standing firm in the truth, no matter the cost.   Great Resource on understanding the Book of Daniel:   “Daniel” – Clarence Larkin   ⁠⁠⁠https://a.co/d/0jhYfvcM [https://a.co/d/0jhYfvcM]
