In Matthew chapter 11, when John heard in prison, he's now been imprisoned by Herod Antipas shortly after Christ baptism. It's sort of like John the Baptist is saying, hey, wait, are you really the guy that we were prophesying about? So let's just pause it and think, why would John the Baptist send disciples to Jesus to ask if Jesus is the Messiah? Because he already knew that. And maybe he's even doubting a bit like Jesus. I thought you were the Messiah.
What brings us closer to Jesus Christ? Dr. John Hilton III explores finding Christ in media, using Fence Laws, and relying on the Savior.
