In this story, Herod mistakenly believes Jesus to be John the Baptist resurrected and Matthew then tells us that Herod had put John to death. We learn the cost of speaking the truth, as shown in John the Baptist's martyrdom for confronting Herod's immoral actions. The sermon contrasts Herod's guilt and political maneuvering with John’s unwavering commitment to truth, urging believers to speak the truth, regardless of the personal cost. Finally, it offers hope, noting that, just as John will rise again, Christians too have the promise of resurrection through Jesus Christ.
