A Look Toward The Future

Daily Reading—Joshua 10-11 / Luke 7:36-50
WHAT GOD HAS SAID:
Luke 7:28For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.
WHAT I HAVE SEEN:
John the Baptist was by far one of the greatest prophets who ever lived. Maybe not in the magnitude of the prophecies he shared, but in the clarity of his purpose in foretelling Jesus’ coming and his direct connection with Christ, he by far outshines them all.
Yet, Jesus said the least of those in the kingdom of God would be greater than John. How could this be? Well, as close as John was to Jesus, a believer today is just as close with the Holy Spirit residing in them. As to the clarity of Christ’s purpose, we now have the entire Word of God to see the beginning and the end, which John did not have. We can say with certainty, as John said back then. “Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.”
