00:00...the way, and all of a sudden, from outside their window, they hear the sound of a trumpet.

00:11Da-da-da-da-da-da!

00:12They thought, did you hear that? What was that?

00:15They opened the window, and sure enough, it was a messenger, someone with a message to tell the community.

00:22And the three Hebrews knew exactly what this announcement would be.

00:28You know why? Because they were waiting for it. They knew what was coming, and now was the time.

00:34The announcement was made, everyone who can hear my voice must gather together in the Valley of Dura.

00:44This afternoon, at 3 o'clock sharp, you must be there, and do not miss this.

00:53And so, the three brothers, wait, were they three brothers, Neto?

00:57No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. They were friends. Friends.

00:59They were good friends, really close friends. Close enough to be like brothers.

01:04And so they said, alright, we were waiting for this day. We knew it was coming. We're ready for it.

01:11And later, they all gathered, all made their way to the valley of Dura.

01:16They were not alone.

01:18They were together with governors and treasurers and officers and satraps.

01:24And they were all heading to this valley.

01:27And when they got there, they could not believe their eyes

01:31because right in the center of the valley was this gigantic, huge, enormous...

01:41Neto, what are you doing?

01:42What is it?

01:43I can't see it.

01:44Oh, a huge statue.

01:46It's pretend, Neto.

01:47It's not really here.

01:49We're pretending.

01:50Guys, do you see it, guys?

01:51Do you see it?

01:52Can you see it?

01:54Your imagination, guys.

01:56You've got to imagine this.

01:57Imagine this.

01:58Yeah, imagine this.

02:00How big was it?

02:01How big was it?

02:01Imagine, imagine, imagine, imagine a huge image.

02:06The Bible says it was 90 feet high.

02:10Oh, man.

02:10Can you believe that, Neto?

02:11It's a big statue.

02:12How tall are you?

02:14I'm like 6 feet nothing.

02:16Yeah.

02:176 feet nothing.

02:18Yeah.

02:19So that's about 12, 13 netos on top of each other all the way up.

02:24Oh, man, poor guy in the bottom.

02:27Whoa, that's huge, 90 feet.

02:29And this image was not made of plastic.

02:33It was not even made of chocolate.

02:37Oh, wow.

02:39And they made this announcement.

02:41Harold came up.

02:42He said, listen up, everybody.

02:45This is the command.

02:46You will hear all sounds of instruments.

02:49And we hear the sounds.

02:51At the sound of the instruments, you have one choice.

02:55And that one choice is you will bow down, you will fall down, and you will worship the image.

03:03Can you believe that?

03:06Sad guys, Nishek, and Abednego, they were prepared for this.

03:10They had already made up their mind.

03:12And so they stood with everyone else.

03:15All the people were standing together.

03:17And all of a sudden, the music began to play.

03:24That's weak, Neto.

03:25That's weak.

03:26You can do a little bit better than that, Neto.

03:31Better, better, better.

03:33Maybe he needs some help.

03:34Maybe you guys can help him.

03:36At the count of three, let's make all sorts of noise of instruments.

03:40Are you ready?

03:41One, two, three, go.

03:46Yeah, that's more like it.

03:49And when they heard those noise, all these people, like hundreds, no, thousands of them,

03:55they fell down.

03:57And they bowed down in front of this image.

04:00Except for one, two, three men.

04:06You know who they were?

04:07Who were they?

04:09Shadrach, Nishek, and Abednego.

04:12Wow.

04:12They stood tall, Neto.

04:14What a courage.

04:15They stood tall.

04:16They stood tall.

04:18And the king couldn't believe it.

04:21Because the king had commended that all should bow down.

04:25And he said, who are those three?

04:26Bring them to me.

04:27And they brought them to him.

04:30And he said, did we not tell you that the punishment for disobeying my word is to be thrown into a fiery furnace?

04:38And the three Hebrews said, we do know that.

04:42And that's okay.

04:44That's okay.

04:45Our God can save us.

04:46But even if he doesn't save us, we're not going to bow down to this idol.

04:51Because we worship the one true God.

04:53They were loyal, boys and girls.

04:55They were what, everyone?

04:57Loyal.

04:58That's right.

04:59They were loyal.

05:00That means that nothing, nothing will distract them.

05:03They were loyal to their God.

05:05Committed to him.

05:06This made the king angry.

05:08He said, enough is enough.

05:10Put them in the fiery furnace.

05:12So they grabbed them.

05:14Tied their feet up.

05:15Tied their hands up.

05:16Now they were bound.

05:17And they carried them to the fiery furnace.

05:20Neto, can you imagine how hot that fiery furnace must have been?

05:23The Bible says it was seven times hotter than normal.

05:29Seven times hotter.

05:30Can you imagine?

05:31Yes.

05:31It was white fire.

05:33Wow.

05:33That's the hottest kind, isn't it?

05:35Yeah.

05:35That's right.

05:36That's right.

05:36We have another comment here, another question.

05:39Behind you.

05:39Please, Abby.

05:40What do you think?

05:41The Bible also says that the men who were closest to it, they fell down dead because it was so hot.

05:49Unbelievable.

05:50The fire was so intense that even the guards, she's right.

05:54Throwing them away.

05:55Even the guards.

05:57Can you reimagine?

05:59It was that hot.

06:00And they fell down as dead men.

06:02And Shadrach, Nisha, and Abednego, they were tossed into this fiery furnace.

06:07And the king probably sat back and said, I bet that taught them a lesson.

06:12And all of a sudden, he looks and he can't believe his eyes.

06:17They're gone, right?

06:19They're gone.

06:20They're burned up.

06:21That, though, there was not just three.

06:24There were now four.

06:26And Nebuchadnezzar looked and said, but wait, wait a minute.

06:29Wait a minute.

06:30I thought there were just three.

06:32But I see four walking in the midst of the furnace.

06:36And he said, come out, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego.

06:41Come out.

06:43And guess what happened?

06:45He just walked out.

06:46Just like this.

06:47Just like this.

06:49This came out.

06:50And guess what?

06:51Something did burn.

06:53Oh, yeah.

06:53Something did burn.

06:54What do you think burned?

06:56That's right.

06:58The ropes.

06:58They could walk.

07:00And their hands were up in the air, praising God.

07:02Yes, we have a comment there.

07:04Grandma Tina or one of our reps can give them a mic.

07:07Yes, Jasmine.

07:09What's also amazing is that even their clothes didn't smell like smoke.

07:12Isn't that awesome?

07:15Even their clothes.

07:17Man, God is so good.

07:18God is so good.

07:20Because when we are loyal to God, believe me, he protects us.

07:24He is such a great God, isn't he?

07:26That's a really great story.

07:27When they came out of the furnace, the king said, indeed, your God is the true God.

07:33Wow, what an amazing story.

07:35Kids, don't go away.

07:36Because when we come back, we're going to take a quiz to see just how much we remember.

07:43Did you know that research says that fathers who read to their children have a greater impact

07:49in helping their child develop language and literacy?

07:52Yes, mothers are important, but it is the father's interaction that helps children the most.

07:57So kids, grab a book and try getting your daddy to read to you.

08:01If you don't have a daddy, like I didn't, that's okay.

08:03Get your mommy or grandparent or someone else to read with you.

08:07You will be glad you did.

08:08Welcome back, boys and girls, to Bible Buzz.

08:13We just took a look at the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, how they did not bow down to that idol.

08:19So now, let the Rick B. quiz, and tell us how we're going to do this.

08:23That's really easy.

08:24You guys know how to play, right?

08:26That's just how to play.

08:27It's pretty easy.

08:29There will be one question on the screen, two answers.

08:32One is right, the other one is wrong.

08:34One is yellow, the other one is blue.

08:36Okay?

08:37And to vote, we're going to use either the blue or the yellow ball, okay?

08:42Are you guys ready?

08:44Are you guys ready?

08:48All right.

08:49And we hope you're ready as well, those viewing from home.

08:53Join us as we quiz them on this awesome story.

08:56All right, refs, we're going to wait for the whistle.

08:58When you're ready, we'll be ready.

09:02Yes, game on.

09:03All right, question number one.

09:04How tall was the statue of gold?

09:08Was it A, 30 feet?

09:10Or was it B, 90 feet?

09:14Remember, we said how many netos would have to be on top of each other.

09:18Answer it in three, two, one.

09:21Blue, B is the right.

09:23Answer, 90 feet.

09:24Good job, everyone.

09:25You're paying attention.

09:27Let's go on to the next question.

09:28Where, oh, this is going to be tricky.

09:32Where was the statue located?

09:35Was it A, in the Valley of Dura?

09:38Or B, Mount Sinai?

09:40Oh, where have we heard that before?

09:43Oh, both are in the Bible, but only one is the right answer.

09:46Three, two, one.

09:49Answer, please.

09:50You are right.

09:51A, Valley of Dura.

09:53Excellent job.

09:54Let's go on to the next question.

09:55Boys and girls, here it is.

09:58Where was the signal to, what, rather, was the signal to bow down to the image?

10:04Was it the sound of instruments?

10:06Or was it the sound of animals?

10:09Hey, count down with me.

10:11Five, four, three, two, one.

10:15Answer, A, yellow ball.

10:18Sound of instruments.

10:20Good job.

10:21Last question.

10:23Here we go.

10:24Last question.

10:27How many men did Nebuchadnezzar see inside of the furnace?

10:32Was it A, three men?

10:34Or was it B, four men?

10:38What is your answer?

10:39Think about it carefully.

10:41Think of all who was there in five, four, three, two, one.

10:46Answer, please.

10:48B, blue.

10:49That is correct.

10:50Four men.

10:52Excellent job, everyone.

10:54Wow.

10:54Today we heard about Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego and how they were loyal.

11:00They were what, everyone?

11:01Loyal.

11:02And today I wonder how many boys and girls want to make a decision to be loyal to Jesus no matter what happens.

11:10If that is your choice today, I invite you to stand with me.

11:14Would you stand?

11:14Amen.

11:16Amen.

11:17If you're watching from home, the invitation is for you, too.

11:20Would you stand for Jesus?

11:22Amen.

11:23We're standing for Jesus.

11:24And are you going to compromise?

11:26Yes or no?

11:28No.

11:29Are you going to be faithful to Jesus?

11:31Yes.

11:32And if you are told to sit down, are you going to stand up for Jesus?

11:37Yes.

11:37All right, everyone.

11:39God bless you.

11:40Be busy in the B-I-B-L-E.

11:45We'll see you next time.

11:49Hey, kids.

11:50I'm Curtis Badger with 3ABN Kids Network.
