About This Message

Pastor Addison preaches through Herod's death in Acts 12:20-25, showing how the king's pride in his royal apparel, his throne, and his boastful speech invited the crowd's flattery that he was a god, and how the angel of the Lord struck him down immediately for not giving God the glory. He warns that pride leads to sudden judgment while God's word endures, and calls listeners to humble themselves and trust Christ.

Key Takeaways

  • Herod's pride in his royal apparel, throne, and speech provoked God's judgment.
  • The angel of the Lord struck Herod dead for taking God's glory.
  • Proud men fall, but God's word continues to grow and multiply.
