Matthew 11:12 - 11:15
Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In this session, Steve Gregg discusses the higher rank of Jesus compared to John the Baptist, despite John being a notable prophet. He addresses a problem raised in John chapter 1, where John the Baptist gained attention early on in his ministry. Steve explains that God's intention in the Bible's literal interpretation is to provide a spiritual understanding to those who seek revelation through Jesus, and not a mere surface-level interpretation. He highlights that when Scripture is quoted in the New Testament, it is often given spiritual meaning that is not easily understood without the Holy Spirit.
