In Daniel Chapter 3, we read that Nebuchadnezzar threw three men into a super-heated furnace. But to his surprise they did not die. Instead, a fourth Man appeared, walking with them in the middle of the furnace. Who wasthisfourth Man who exercised such power over the flames that when the three men finally came out at Nebuchadnezzar’s bidding, not even the smell of fire was on their clothes, only the ropes with which they had been tied, were burnt?
