Herod's Violent Death
Unveiling Spiritual Consequences: Herod's Warning
Lyrics
This Herod he was troubled, when he first learned of Christ
This Herod experienced trouble upon learning about Christ, paralleling those today who ignore salvation.
Like so many of today, who neglect salvation life
Similar to many contemporary individuals, he neglected the life offered by salvation.
And do not give the Lord Christ Jesus, the glory due his name
People fail to give proper glory to the Lord Jesus Christ, relying on their righteousness to enter Heaven.
They try by their own righteousness, to enter Heavens gate
They attempt to enter Heaven through their own righteousness.
Herod's violent death
Reference to the violent death of Herod.
Another killed John the Baptist, for some wicked chick
Another individual killed John the Baptist due to immoral reasons.
Like those who kill the Word of God, that is, make no place for it
Similar to those who neglect the Word of God, making no room for it in their lives.
They claim that they're just busy, that maybe one day they'll get with it
Excuses are made about being busy, delaying acceptance of God's Word.
But as the thief comes in the night, guess what they'll be hit with
A warning that when the unexpected happens, they will face consequences.
Herod's violent death
Reference again to Herod's violent death.
A lesson to be learned, as History will repeat itself
History serves as a lesson, emphasizing that ignoring God's Word leads to negative consequences.
The scripture, it does not lie
The Scriptures are emphasized as truthful and not deceptive.
Billions will follow them to Judgement, because they will not receive Christ
Billions will face judgment for rejecting Christ.
Why don't you repent tonight
An urging to repent and turn towards Christ.
Herod's violent death
Reference again to Herod's violent death.
This death is just a type of the terror, that you will live in
Herod's death symbolizes the terror one will live in by refusing to become a Saint of God.
If you refuse to become a Saint of God, consecrated to Him
A call to consecrate oneself to God to avoid such terror.
Holiness is not the eradication of evil in the fallen nature of man
Clarification that holiness is not the removal of evil but consecration to God through faith.
But consecration unto God, Come by Faith, you can
Encouragement that consecration to God is achievable through faith.
Herod's violent death
Reference again to Herod's violent death.
