The Hand Writing is on the Wall
Freedom and Liberty item by Dr. Robert Owens

In a Bible passage so powerful even those who don’t believe the Bible unknowingly quote it an arrogant young ruler is so enamored with his exalted position he thinks he can disregard the traditions of his predecessors with impunity.  In the midst of a celebration of his greatness the proud young man calls for the sacred vessels captured when his father conquered Judah so that he can drink toasts to himself. Suddenly before a stunned king and his smug courtiers a hand appears in mid-air writing on the wall of his palatial palace.  Never having seen a teleprompter the king had no idea these words would come to define his reign.  He called for the wisest man in his kingdom to tell him what they meant.
