Speak Truth - Get Killed
In this powerful message, we're challenged to consider the cost of following Christ. The story of John the Baptist's martyrdom serves as a sobering reminder that speaking truth can come at a great price. We're encouraged to examine our own lives and ask ourselves: Are we truly willing to stand for God's truth, even when it's unpopular or dangerous? The account in Mark 6 shows us how John fearlessly confronted Herod about his unlawful marriage, demonstrating that as believers, we're called to stand against sin and injustice, regardless of the consequences. This message urges us to develop a faith that's not just private, but bold and public – one that's willing to face persecution for the sake of the gospel. As we reflect on John's unwavering commitment, we're challenged to cultivate a deeper, more authentic faith that values truth above comfort or social acceptance.
