Lessons from Luke: John the Baptist
” ‘. . . What will this child turn out to be?’ for the hand of the Lord was upon him.” Luke 1:66 The miraculous events of baby John’s conception and birth combined with the prophetic proclamation of his future role in the Kingdom, prompted people to ask, “What will this child turn out to be?” Great […]
