Foolishness

"Here is some foolishness for you. Herod the tetrarch may have thought John, the bright and burning lamp was the Messiah of Israel. In all actuality, I think he may not have liked Jesus or John. He may have just wanted to be a King that was more famous than either of these great and righteous prophets.

Of course Jesus is God in the flesh, the Son of God and the Son of Man. I love righteousness. Of course, God the Father worked miracles at the hands of John, Stephen, Moses, and His own Son Melchizedek. It is His Spirit that accomplishes great and mighty works. Melchizedek is Jesus, and He is Lord of lords and King of kings."

At that time Herod the tetrarch heard the reports about Jesus, and he said to his attendants, “This is John the Baptist; he has risen from the dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”

Now Herod had arrested John and bound him and put him in prison because of Herodias, his brother Philip’s wife, for John had been saying to him: “It is not lawful for you to have her.” Herod wanted to kill John, but he was afraid of the people, because they considered John a prophet.

On Herod’s birthday the daughter of Herodias danced for the guests and pleased Herod so much that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she asked. Prompted by her mother, she said, “Give me here on a platter the head of John the Baptist.” The king was distressed, but because of his oaths and his dinner guests, he ordered that her request be granted and had John beheaded in the prison. His head was brought in on a platter and given to the girl, who carried it to her mother. John’s disciples came and took his body and buried it. Then they went and told Jesus. "Foolish people worship those that perform miracles. The only one anyone should worship is Jesus the Messiah of Israel. He was born of a virgin in Bethlehem of Judea many years ago. If any miracles were done amongst anyone reading anything I have wrote please worship the One who created all things."

For false Christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.

"Please do not be divisive or separate yourself from those that call upon the Name of the Lord from a pure heart in truth!"
