Evil Alliances

Keep your gifts or give them to someone else - Daniel 5:17

Daniel refused Belshazzar's offer of monetary gifts and polical status

The Babylonian king wanted a favorable interpretation of a most disturbing vision

Belshazzar obviously didn't know Daniel as he refused to make a buck with the gift God had given him

Daniel didn't hesitate to give the bad news and meaning of the dream - Belshazzar had made his final politcal proposal

Daniel let it be known that neither the truth nor his intergrity was for sale
