About the weakness of the so-called powerful

John the Baptist and Jesus both died because of the weakness of someone in power.

In John's case, it was Herod and for Jesus, it was Pilate.

In their weakness, they were more concerned about the opinion of others

than about what was right.

Both John the Baptist and Jesus were fearless preachers of the truth.

Their 'weakness' was their strength.

For those who had the power to save or condemn

their 'power' was their weakness.
