What is John's Problem? (Luke 7:18-30)
There is no doubt that John the baptist is a prophet. He is the last prophet called by the Lord, and he closes the Old Testament canon. It must have been a joy to be John as he is a prophet who sees the substance of the message he brings to the people. If this […]
