Want this question answered?
Because he baptised Jesus.
John the baptist was his cousin. Although there was an other John people think he is the cousin of Jesus but he was not, but he was a deciple.
Yes they did.
The main job of john the baptist was to make the people repent of their sins , and get baptized.
No, that would be King Solomon. Jesus said this of John the Baptist: Matthew 11:11New King James Version (NKJV) 11 "Assuredly, I say to you, among those born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
lol i think i am just typing this so i dont have to finsh my research paper on John The Baptist.
Matthew 11:11 - Assuredly, I say to you, among those born of women there has not risen one greater than John the Baptist; but he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. (Parallel passage at Luke 7:28.)
hi
There is a St. John the Baptist but no St. John Paul the Baptist.
John the Baptist was not a crazy person. people believe that because they would NEVER baptize Jesus or do anything that John did. and since most people don't like to admit this they say that the people who do these things are crazy.
well, he wasn't the savior, but he christened the savior, which is basically like the vice-president to the president, sort of. "Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. Matthew 11:11According to Jesus, John the Baptist is more important (greater) than him (Jesus was born of woman, Mary).
I think this has been answered before: "Come forth and repent your sins, get baptised in the river Jordan."
