As John the Baptist was sitting in jail for proclaiming who he believed Jesus to be, he began wondering... was Jesus really who he, John, thought He was? (Matthew 11:2-4) Who would have thougth that this would have ever entered John's mind.
Ever had doubt along the journey with Jesus?
Jesus' reply was simply this, "Report to John what you hear and see." Powerful! Jesus words and evidence of what He does is testimony enough. The evidence stands strong.
Next, Jesus further promises, "Blessed is the man who does not fall away on account of me." Standing firm in the midst of the tribulation on acoount of Him will bring blessing.
James 1:12 says, "Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him.
