1John 2:18-22 Mark 6:14-29 and ACTS 7:38-60 Separately
☀️ A.M. 1John 2:18-22
18 - Children, it’s the last hour [hora - a definite space of time, a season, an hour, the particular time for anything] and as you have heard, antichrist is coming.
Even now many antichrists have come. Therefore we know it is the last season. 19 They went out from us, but they weren’t genuine, for if they had been, they would have continued with us. But they went away from us, that it might become plain that they’re not of us. 20 But you, you have been anointed by the Holy One, and have the accurate knowledge/knowing. 21 I write to you, not because you don’t know the truth, but because you do know the truth, and because no lie can be of the truth. 22 And who is the liar? But he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? This -> is the antichrist -> whoever denies the Father and the Son. {And has become “the world”?}
🌙 P.M. MARK 6:14-29
14 - King Herod heard all about Jesus, for his name had become very well known. Some people said, “John the Baptist has been raised from the dead! That’s why these miraculous powers are at work in him.” 15 But others said, “He’s Elijah!” And still others said, “He’s a prophet, like one of the prophets of old.”
16 But when Herod heard of it, he said, “John, whom I beheaded, has been raised!” 17 For it was Herod who had ordered John be arrested and cast into prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, because he had married his own brother’s wife. 18 For John had been saying to Herod, “It’s not lawful for you to have her.” [Herod was Hebrew.]
19 So Herodias hated him. And she wanted to have him put to death. But she couldn’t, 20 because Herod feared John. For he knew he was a righteous and holy man, and so he kept him safe. When he heard him speak, he was perplexed and troubled. Yet he liked to listen to him.
21 But an opportunity came when Herod, upon his birthday, gave a banquet for his nobles, military commanders, and the leading men of Galilee. 22 When Herodias' daughter came in and danced for them, she pleased Herod and his guests. And the king exclaimed, “Ask me for whatever you wish! And I will give it to you!” 23 And he vowed, “Whatever you ask! I will give you! Up to half of my kingdom!” 24 So she sought out her mother and said, “What should I ask for?” And her mother said, “The head of John the Baptist.” 25 So she hurried back to the king, saying, “I want you to give me the head of John the Baptist on a platter!”
26 The king was troubled and regretful, but because of his oath - his guests heard it - he didn’t want to be seen breaking his word. 27 So he sent for an executioner with orders to bring John's head, who then went and beheaded him in the prison. 28 And he brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the girl. And the girl gave it to her mother. 29 When his disciples heard of it, they came and took his body and laid it in a tomb.
