[2933.18 --> 2937.20] Jesus' cousin John
[2937.20 --> 2938.18] was in prison
[2938.18 --> 2940.12] because
[2940.12 --> 2941.88] John had called out
[2941.88 --> 2943.08] his prime minister
[2943.08 --> 2943.74] of the day,
[2943.82 --> 2944.42] if you will,
[2944.76 --> 2946.08] for doing something
[2946.08 --> 2947.36] immoral.
[2947.36 --> 2948.70] and so here
[2948.70 --> 2949.30] he's sitting
[2949.30 --> 2950.44] in jail
[2950.44 --> 2951.90] and he's starting
[2951.90 --> 2952.76] to wonder,
[2953.72 --> 2953.96] you know,
[2954.76 --> 2956.60] solitary confinement
[2956.60 --> 2957.40] makes you have
[2957.40 --> 2959.12] second thoughts.
[2960.76 --> 2962.30] So he sends out
[2962.30 --> 2963.60] his disciples,
[2963.86 --> 2964.30] those who
[2964.30 --> 2965.60] he taught,
[2965.86 --> 2966.18] to say,
[2966.32 --> 2967.66] ask Jesus,
[2968.48 --> 2969.52] are you actually
[2969.52 --> 2970.94] the one who was to come?
[2971.74 --> 2972.52] Or should we yet
[2972.52 --> 2973.80] expect somebody else?
[2975.00 --> 2975.88] This is at the beginning
[2975.88 --> 2977.02] of Matthew 11.
[2977.36 --> 2978.22] And Jesus says,
[2978.30 --> 2978.76] you send,
[2979.50 --> 2980.18] you go back
[2980.18 --> 2981.56] to John
[2981.56 --> 2982.60] and you report
[2982.60 --> 2984.10] what you've seen
[2984.10 --> 2985.02] and heard.
[2985.14 --> 2986.42] And here's what Jesus said,
[2986.44 --> 2987.20] if we can have that
[2987.20 --> 2987.82] on the PowerPoint.
[2988.50 --> 2988.86] He said,
[2988.92 --> 2990.26] the blind receive sight.
[2990.36 --> 2991.32] I think I may have
[2991.32 --> 2991.96] sent that in.
[2992.44 --> 2993.84] The lame walk,
[2993.94 --> 2995.06] those who have leprosy
[2995.06 --> 2995.72] are cured.
[2996.14 --> 2997.38] The deaf hear,
[2997.58 --> 2998.92] the dead are raised,
[2999.26 --> 3000.66] and the good news
[3000.66 --> 3001.48] is preached
[3001.48 --> 3002.92] to the poor.
[3002.92 --> 3005.52] And he didn't add,
[3005.82 --> 3006.64] and don't worry,
[3006.74 --> 3008.06] I'll take care of Herod.
[3008.20 --> 3009.52] He added this,
[3010.12 --> 3011.58] blessed is the one
[3011.58 --> 3012.76] who does not
[3012.76 --> 3014.42] fall away
[3014.42 --> 3015.60] on account
[3015.60 --> 3017.18] of me.
[3019.38 --> 3020.50] And then after
[3020.50 --> 3022.18] he sends these folks away,
[3022.28 --> 3023.78] he turns to his own disciples
[3023.78 --> 3025.32] and he starts explaining
[3025.32 --> 3026.94] what was going on
[3026.94 --> 3027.84] with John,
[3027.84 --> 3030.12] how it is
[3030.12 --> 3031.10] that good people
[3031.10 --> 3031.84] like him
[3031.84 --> 3033.18] end up
[3033.18 --> 3034.20] in prison.
[3035.62 --> 3036.04] And Jesus,
[3036.20 --> 3036.68] I'll put it
[3036.68 --> 3037.64] in our own words,
[3037.84 --> 3038.04] says,
[3038.14 --> 3038.36] look,
[3039.90 --> 3040.78] John came
[3040.78 --> 3041.74] eating vegan
[3041.74 --> 3042.54] and sleeping
[3042.54 --> 3043.26] in the van
[3043.26 --> 3043.84] and they said
[3043.84 --> 3044.84] he's off his rocker.
[3045.60 --> 3046.58] I come accepting
[3046.58 --> 3047.42] all the extras
[3047.42 --> 3048.82] and they call me
[3048.82 --> 3049.30] a glutton,
[3049.88 --> 3050.42] a drunkard.
[3052.86 --> 3053.90] Jesus goes
[3053.90 --> 3054.54] and he says,
[3054.68 --> 3055.58] I want to compare
[3055.58 --> 3056.70] this generation
[3056.70 --> 3058.48] to little kids
[3058.48 --> 3059.98] who no matter
[3059.98 --> 3061.40] what game you offer,
[3061.76 --> 3062.70] it's not the one
[3062.70 --> 3063.52] they want to play.
[3066.18 --> 3067.00] After that,
[3067.10 --> 3068.14] Jesus goes on
[3068.14 --> 3069.24] to denounce
