Enjoy reading this Su
While John the Baptist was in prison, he heard what Christ was doing and he sent some
of his followers to ask Christ, “Are you the one sent by God, or do we have to wait
for someone else?” Jesus answered, “Go back and tell John what you hear and see:
the blind see again, and the lame walk, lepers are cured, and the
deaf hear, and the dead are raised to life. The Good News is being
announced to the poor; and happy are those who do not lose faith
in me.” As the messengers were leaving, Jesus began to talk to the
people about John: “He is the one of whom scripture says: ‘Look, I
am going to send my messenger before you; he will prepare your
way before you’. I tell you solemnly, of all the children born of
women, one greater than John the Baptist has never been seen;
yet the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he is.
