1 | Anyone killed for stopping God's work | Ps 105:15 | EdB | 57253 | ||
Jkeels Actually Herod was not killed because he hindered God's work but rather because he allowed the people to worship him as a god. A unique aspect of following God is you probably stand a better chance of being killed doing the will of God than you do resisting the His will. Most old testament prophets were killed or at least mistreated for doing God’s will. Every Apostle except possibly John was killed doing God's will. The first century Christians were killed and slaughtered because they followed hard after God. Today Christians around the world are dying because they are servants of the most high God. We know our physical state here on earth is not nearly as important as our state in eternity. That is not to say God's enemies go untouched, we see many have their life cut short, the Philistines, the Hittites, Ammonites, Moab, Goliath, the Kings of Assyria, Belshazzar, Saul and the list goes on.

Thanks. Your answer more adquately answers my concern and I can do further research. I appreciate your further enlightenment on Herod; however, I stick to the fact that "at the appointed time" He was removed to allow God's work to move on. Thanks so much! |
