Then the story of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego must be myth.
Daniel 3:16 Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego replied to him, “King Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you in this matter. 17 If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us[c] from Your Majesty’s hand.
Either way they weren't bowing down and worshipping Nebuchadnezzar's idol. God doesn't promise us peace on earth. He also possesses us with skills and discernment to take positive actions for the avoidance of these outcomes.
