Matthew 11:11 Truly I tell you, among those born of women there has not risen anyone greater than John the Baptist; yet whoever is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
When Jesus said these words, I am sure there were many who did not like them; much the same as today there are many who don’t like being called sinners!
Jesus pointed out that no matter how great John the Baptist was, no matter how much he preached and baptised people, he was still just a man like us.
When we believe in Christ we have a sure hope, but it is only a hope until we are actually with Christ in heaven!
Believe. Trust. Hope. Wait. Be patient, Christ is still working with us!
