No scorn like a woman's! John waisted no time preaching and teaching. In fact his profession of the truth, and teaching Gods law, put him in prison. What better place to start your ministry then to condemn the king and his sweetheart. This of course should be a lesson to any prophet, who would speak the truth concerning sin, salvation and the kingdom of God. John came from a family who knew what sacrifice was, and certainly the history of those that preached the word of God! His father, Zacharias, was truly a chosen one of God.
Their are people like Herodias who have this same power even today, who while in the background can do things that most kings would never consider, even behead, those like John the Baptist! The problem of course ,was even though Herodias had relieved herself of Guilt, after eliminating John, that would actually be the beginning of what God had planned for them all along, the downfall of Herod and all his cronies!
When the gov't, takes an innocent man and beheads him, word gets out fast! People will turn against those that have no desire for the truth. Wise people cannot be controlled. Wise people ,live in the light ,not in darkness. Control of the masses is easy when you take the word of God away! This would be Herod's eventual end. The truth may seem untouchable at times, but eventually you will not be able to deny it. The spirit of truth will not be denied. We would be blessed as a nation if there were more John the Baptist. This pandemic could be the end of many churches, could mean religion's disappearing. With the evolution of technology, be assured that they will endeavor to silence the words of Jesus Christ! The church does not use the kjv ,because it is the truth!

The church does not use the kjv ,because it is the truth! ....I am the church. I use the KJV.
Seems you maybe 'King James only' proponent. If so, not good.
