    The Passover was the first and most important feast day of the Jewish people... but it was only the first feast day of "The Feast of Unleavened Bread". There was a reason for that. Do you know what it was?

    THE SCENE: Israel had been in slavery in Egypt for years. In answer to the prayers of the Israelite people, God sent Moses to Pharaoh with this command: “Let my people go!” But of course Pharaoh wouldn’t listen and so God brought 10 terrible plagues upon Egypt and Pharaoh to convince them that it ...read more

    Herod's bad decisions, compromise, and pride created a prime situation in which to be taken advantage of and tricked into executing John the Baptist. We can learn from Herod and learn not to be so gullible.

ONE MIGHT EVEN QUESTION HOW THIS PASSAGE OF SCRIPTURE COULD EVEN QUALIFY FOR A SUNDAY SERMON! JUST THE MARRIAGE ALONE, JOHN THE BAPTIST WAS CORRECT IN REBUKING HEROD ...read more
