the king made his promises but Dan

in their true value, waves them aside
1.-THE world offers nothing of value
comparable with the rewards which
God bestows upon His children"
8. Weight and Wanting - The
young king in his pride gave praise to
false gods which see not, nor hear, nor
know; profaned the holy vessels OF
the Lord, and insulted the Most High!
Daniel as a true servant of the Lord
declares the awful sentnce: Thou art
weighed in the balances and art found
wanting; thy kingdom is divided and
given to the Modes and Persians," and
in the weary hours of that dreadful
night Belshazzar the king of the Chal-
deans went into eternity.
