Blessed Are Those Who Don't Doubt Me

To: ALL WHO HAVE EARS TO HEAR

From:  GOD THE FATHER, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST HIS SON and Ministered through the HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD, The Helper, that He may be with you forever. [John 14:16]

Subject:  MY WORD;   John 1:1 (NKJV) ¹ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.   John 1:14 (NKJV) ¹⁴ And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.

 

Matthew 11:1–19 (The Living Bible) ¹ When Jesus had finished giving these instructions to his twelve disciples, he went off preaching in the cities where they were scheduled to go. ² John the Baptist, who was now in prison, heard about all the miracles the Messiah was doing, so he sent his disciples to ask Jesus, ³ “Are you really the one we are waiting for, or shall we keep on looking?” ⁴ Jesus told them, “Go back to John and tell him about the miracles you’ve seen me do—⁵ the blind people I’ve healed, and the lame people now walking without help, and the cured lepers, and the deaf who hear, and the dead raised to life; and tell him about my preaching the Good News to the poor. ⁶ Then give him this message, ‘Blessed are those who don’t doubt me.’ ” ⁷ When John’s disciples had gone, Jesus began talking about him to the crowds. “When you went out into the barren wilderness to see John, what did you expect him to be like? Grass blowing in the wind? ⁸ Or were you expecting to see a man dressed as a prince in a palace? ⁹ Or a prophet of God? Yes, and he is more than just a prophet. ¹⁰ For John is the man mentioned in the Scriptures—a messenger to precede me, to announce my coming, and prepare people to receive me. ¹¹ “Truly, of all men ever born, none shines more brightly than John the Baptist. And yet, even the lesser lights in the Kingdom of Heaven will be greater than he is! ¹² And from the time John the Baptist began preaching and baptizing until now, ardent multitudes have been crowding toward the Kingdom of Heaven, ¹³ for all the laws and prophets looked forward to the Messiah. Then John appeared, ¹⁴ and if you are willing to understand what I mean, he is Elijah, the one the prophets said would come at the time the Kingdom begins. ¹⁵ If ever you were willing to listen, listen now! ¹⁶ “What shall I say about this nation? These people are like children playing, who say to their little friends, ¹⁷ ‘We played wedding and you weren’t happy, so we played funeral but you weren’t sad.’ ¹⁸ For John the Baptist doesn’t even drink wine and often goes without food, and you say, ‘He’s crazy.’ ¹⁹ And I, the Messiah, feast and drink, and you complain that I am ‘a glutton and a drinking man, and hang around with the worst sort of sinners!’ But brilliant men like you can justify your every inconsistency!”

Luke 7:22–23 (NASB95) ²² And He answered and said to them, “Go and report to John what you have seen and heard: the blind receive sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, the poor have the gospel preached to them. ²³ “Blessed is he who does not take offense at Me.”

Matthew 11:6 (AMP) ⁶ And blessed (happy, fortunate, and to be envied) is he who takes no offense at Me and finds no cause for stumbling in or through Me and is not hindered from seeing the Truth.

 [Please Note:  Always Read the Word of God in Context, reading the entire chapter or book, asking the Holy Spirit of the Living God to give you the interpretation.   2 Peter 1:16–21 (Williams)   ¹⁶  For it was not mere stories of fancy that we followed when we told you of the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of His majesty. ¹⁷ For when He received such honor and glory from God the Father, when from the majestic glory there was borne to Him a voice like this, “This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom I take delight.” ¹⁸ we heard this voice ourselves borne from heaven while we were with Him on that sacred mountain. ¹⁹ So we have the message of the prophets more certainly guaranteed.  Please pay attention to this message as to a lamp that is shining in a dismal place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts; ²⁰ because you recognize this truth above all else, that no prophecy in Scripture is to be interpreted by one’s own mind, ²¹ for no prophecy has ever yet originated in man’s will, but men who were led by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.]
