God is Not Dead

Actually I make this article for my sermons

But I think it's good to share with you guys before I preach that.


“Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven.

Matthew 10:32 NKJV


As the tittle says, Yes I have ever watched this movie. I was amazed with this movie, in part when the Professor asked his students to write down in the paper that he share to them: God is dead. they can attend to his science class but first they must write God is dead. And almost all student write that.
But one of them keep hold not write that.
When the Professor approaches him and asks why he didn't do what he was told to do? The student said, I am a Christian and I cannot do it. Not only keep his faith but he also proven that God is not dead through God's Word and the history.
And at last all the students that were writing God is dead, All of them acknowledged that God is not dead.


Other evidence I take from the Bible we all know this story in Daniel 3 we find a story that is almost similar to the story of God is not dead.


Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego, do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up?
 Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; well: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands?

'Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-Nego answered and said to the king, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter. '

If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.  But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.  And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed–nego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace.  Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonished, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king.  He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.  Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed–nego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God.  Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed–nego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort.

Daniel 3:14-18‭, ‬23‭, 25‭, ‬28‭, 29 KJV


Daniel 3:14-18

From the history of their fathers they had learned that disobedience to God results in dishonor, disaster, and death; and that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, the foundation of all true prosperity. ... Their faith strengthened as they declared that God would be glorified by delivering them, and with triumphant assurance born of implicit trust in God, they added, “But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.” {PK 508}



 We are all in the same situation. There are things that will make us deny God. The question is can we maintain faith like these young people? Or will we deny our faith?

If the day on which the Sunday law will apply and we will have to choose, Sabbath or Sunday? What is our answer? The answer is in each of our hearts.


Joshua 1:9
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”

 Thank you! May God bless you and be with you guys...
