Timothy Wayne George's comment on 2013-02-20 17:41:03:

John the Baptist is in prison for preaching the truth. Herod Antipas was living with his brother's Phillip's wife Herodias, which was adulterous. John is ultimately beheaded for not being politically correct. Marriage between unbeliever and believers is prohibited for these reasons. II Corinthians 6 speaks about this, and when Christians don't follow this rule, it sets the household up for Satanic attacks. If preachers taught the Word of God like John the Baptist did, they too would end up beheaded. The bible said in the last days they would not endure sound doctrine, but would have teachers with itching ears. Jesus warned us that the time would come when they would think by killing us they would be doing God service. The Second Advent will be as it was in the days of Noah, and Lot. Violence and sexual perversion filled the Earth during those days. When we watch the news, that is what we see reported, and this just tells us how close we are to the Second Advent.
