The Scripture & The Sense Podcast #330: Hosea 11:1-2 by Daniel Whyte III

TEXT: Matthew 11:7-15

Second, John the Baptist was the G.O.A.T. because he denied his own comforts and worldly power. The Bible tells us that John lived out in the wilderness, and “had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey.” Jesus contrasts John with people who wear soft clothes and lived in the courts of kings. Mark tells us that “Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just man and an holy, and observed him; and when he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly.“ Like some pastors do today, John could have used His leverage with Herod to compromise himself and gain material comforts and political power. But John rejected this temptation and remained in the wilderness so that He could preach God’s word. We should not aspire to worldly comforts when it compromises our walk with God. We must be willing to cast our lot in with suffering if that is necessary to follow in the steps of Jesus.

Chick-fil-A to End Charitable Giving to Several Christian Organizations (WHR 11.20.19) by Daniel Whyte III

TEXT: 1 Timothy 2

Godly women are to be content at home, and to be content to love their children and love their husbands and serve their families in their homes and serve the Lord. One of the most wonderful things that the church has ever experienced is the ministry of women. All of the tests and the studies and surveys indicate that about 60 percent of all church life is cared for by women. Evangelical churches are populated by women. They say about 37 percent of evangelical churches are men. The church has always benefited by godly women who work in the home, and when they have time they minister on behalf of the church. And as women abandon the home for the world, they also abandon the church.
