We are In the Flesh by Richard Roberts

Why have we got so many questions that don't appear to have any answers? Because we are human. Because we aren't in heaven yet ; we are in the flesh.
Look at John the Baptist's life. If anybody knew who Jesus was, it should have been John. John is the person that baptized the Lord in the Jordan river and saw the Lord descend on Him in the form of a dove. John heard a Voice from heaven say,'This is my beloved child in whom I'm well pleased' ( Matthew 3:17 ).
But at the end of his life, when John was sitting in a jail cell about to die for his faith, suddenly he started to question whether Jesus was truly the Messiah ( Matthew 11:2,3 ). Paul claimed in II Corinthians 4:7, We have this treasure in earthen vessels. He is's talking about the human frailty that every one of us has because we are homo sapiens. We don't always have a clear appreciation of things. First Corinthians 13:12 asserts, We see thru a glass darkly.
What was the answer John received to his questions? Matthew 11:4,5 NKJV shows us that Jesus failed to condemn John's uncertainty. He sent word to him, exclaiming,'Tell Johnthat the blind see and the lame walkthe deaf hear ; and the poor have the gospel preached unto them'. In other words,'Tell John that I am the One!'
