Mark 6

John the Baptist was a bona fide prophet. Although his voice was heard in the wilderness, it reached every aspect of the Jewish culture in his day. Herod was captivated by him and would venture out to hear him speak.

John called them like he saw them. He called out Herod because he had unlawfully taken his brother’s wife for his own. Having been put in prison, John was eventually beheaded by Herod. He gave his all.

It isn’t always popular to speak for God. In fact, you should check your message if everyone agrees with you all the time.
