Show Notes
Jesus honors John the Baptist in front of the crowd as the greatest prophet ever. Jesus looks at John's whole life and ministry without referencing his moments of weakness and discouragement. Jesus sets an example for spiritual leaders today to honor those who serve God faithfully. We may not understand completely why God did not send His representatives to perform mighty miracles in the non-Jewish cities mentioned in this story, but we all are accountable to God according to the "light" we received. The Gospel should be preached in a simple way so even spiritual children can accept it and enter into God's Kingdom.
