The Biblical Remix – Naughty

Matthew 14:3-11 – http://bit.ly/biblicalremixnaughty

The ruler over the region of Galillee was Herod. On his birthday he threw a huge party where all his peoples showed up.

During one part of the party his stepdaughter Salome came out to a solo dance performance.  While she was making it clap and getting low with it, this Beyonce chorus was heard:

“Tonight I’ll be your naughty girl, I’m callin all my girls, We’re gonna turn this party out, I know you want my body…”

Reflection:

Herod got so sexually excited when she finished dancing he offered her whatever she wanted, including up to half of his kingdom.  Urged on by her mother (Herodias), Salome asked Herod to chop off the head of John the Baptist and give it to her on a plate.

Honoring his oath, that is exactly what happened.

In the midst of sexual excitement the best of us have made foolish decisions. Let us exercise wisdom by not putting ourselves in that position in the first place. Therefore we will have less drama and less baby daddys also.
