Go to the other extreme, why do cites become so perverted, the bigger the more perverse it seems. Sodom, New York City, London Honk Kong etc. etc. Notice where they love Abortion and Homosexuality ? In these evil bastions of society, so naturally a Godly man would seek to distance himself from these places, especially in the Old Testament where one had to go make an offer for sins at the Altar of God, whereas we have daily access to the Mercy Throne.Jesus basically said that John the Baptist was the most righteous man to ever live... and he lived in the wilderness, eating insects and wearing minimal clothing. But why?
My guess is that he was staying away from all worldly distractions at all costs so that he could be completely focused on God and not be influenced by the sinful societies of the world... because he feared God and how holy He is.
Anyone have any other ideas why John the Baptist lived the way he did? In the wilderness eating locusts and honey, wearing camel hair and a leather belt?
