Mark 6:16
This tells us that this particular opinion was unique to Herod. Many time people in power who have gained and kept it by questionable means, are very jumpy. Herod the Tetrarch, no matter how intelligent, was borderline crazy. This malady is not uncommon for someone in his position.
2 Samuel 1:1-3:39
James 1:16 Do not err, my beloved brethren.
Heavenly Father, thank you for the message of the gospel. We must remember that the gospel is not only a great promise for our salvation, but a great instruction for our lives. Often we rejoice in the power of the cross, but fail to live the truth of it. May we be examples of the gospel in our lives! Living as reflections of Christ is our goal. Thank you for the truth! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
Pray for our VBS this week.
