Question 2: “What did The Messiah tell them?”

Answer: “Jesus told them to look at what He was doing! ‘At that time Jesus cured many of their diseases, sufferings, and evil spirits; He also granted sight to many who were blind. And Jesus said to them in reply, ‘Go and tell John what you have seen and heard: the blind regain their sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have the good news proclaimed to them.’

Question 3: “John’s disciples saw that Jesus is The Prophesied Messiah! Did Jesus tell them anything else?”

Answer: “Yes! Jesus added this sentence: ‘And blessed is the one who takes no offense at Me.’

Question 4: “What does that mean?”

Answer: “Jesus Christ identified a Third Group of people. In every age, Group 1 are like Abel. They will love and obey God. Group 2 follows Cain. They ‘take offense at’ God and those who love and obey Him. Group 3 are those who are ‘blessed’ to ‘take no offense at’ Jesus.”

Question 5: “Did leaders of the Scribes, Romans, Sadducees, Herodians, and Pharisees ‘take offense at’ Jesus?”

Answer: “Group 2 took so much ‘offense at’ Him that they would have Him and His followers viciously persecuted and often killed!”

Question 6: “Why?”

Answer: “In every generation, those in charge of Group 2 let their ‘offense at’ those who obey God take form in murderous rage.”

Question 7: “Who is in Group 3?”

Answer: “The confused! Hordes of them wander around between the Lovers and Haters of God. They believe in God, but they hate to obey Every Word He Spoke!”

~

Question 8: “How can we identify those who are in Group 3?

Answer: “They are Upper-level Willful Protestants. They are confused by, but are ‘blessed’ to not ‘take offense at’ The Holy Word with Which Jesus Christ Spoke One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church Into Being!”

~

Question 9: “What Word of Jesus is that?”

Answer: “‘And I say unto you thou art Peter and on this rock I build My Church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys to The Kingdom of Heaven.’
