Secondly, wanted to change their beliefs
Daniel 1:4
Thirdly, wanted to change their lifestyle
Daniel 1:5


If they had given in to the lifestyle of the Chaldeans, they would have flatly denied the Word of God. Why?
First: King’s food was offered to idols.
Secondly, eating and drinking was the major social event in ancient times
Thirdly, the law of God had strict dietary laws
Daniel 1:8
Fourthly, the lifestyle of the King would be the most lavish in all the land.


But Daniel…
