The three Hebrew children said, "We will not serve thy gods," and there they rested. They had nothing to do with the results. If the king threw them into the fiery furnace, that was his business, and it was God's business to look after the fire when they were thrown into it. They simply said, No, no we will not.
Dare to say "No!" We are too apt to think what the results will be if we say no. All we have to do is to decide what is right, and stand by it; and if we do not do this, we are not worthy to be called by His name.
