Legitimate Question or Illegitimate Prophet? (Luke 7:18-35)

John the Baptist, in jail, asks if Jesus is the promised Savior. Jesus performs and calls attention to His miracles, like healing the sick and resurrecting the dead. He also praises John as a top prophet but says even the humblest in God’s realm is special. This shows how God's realm brings unexpected changes to society and religion, fulfilling His word. The text closes by comparing those who believe in Jesus and those who don’t, stressing the need for faith and embracing God’s radical kingdom.
