He would be embraced by God the Father into the gates of heaven. This story is inspired by Mark 6:12-29, Luke 9:6-9. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.
Today's Bible verse is Mark 6:15 from the King James Version.
Episode 192: Out of anger, Herod imprisoned John the Baptist, and though he feared John, he would not kill him. His wife, however, manipulated Herod to make him promise to kill John. And though he regretted this offer, his social standing meant more to him than doing the right thing. Afterward, Jesus' fame began to rise more and more and Herod once again became worried.
