302nd Post Promises Jesus Made to His Follower's Con't. - His Own Prayers -Matthew 11: 25 -26.

Matthew 11: 25 - 26; Luke 10:21.
I thank You Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes. Even so, Father for it seemed good in your sight.
This was spoken by Jesus about 1.1/2 years into His earthly Ministry. Jesus is very busy, preaching, teaching, and healing. This passage occurs soon after John the Baptist's disciples bring Jesus John's question, "Are you the one who is to come, or shall we search for another?" Jesus sent out the disciples two by two to minister to the people. Doubt among the people, including His own group seemed to be growing. It was at this time that Jesus spoke the passage mentioned above. Jesus is living in the time of the Gentiles, that the prophet Daniel had foreseen, and spoken about. We also are living in the time of the Gentiles, this will be the case until the anti-christ stands outside the rebuilt Jewish temple and declares "he is god!" During this time the words of Isaiah are in effect, "Seeing, they won't see, and hearing they won't understand." Only the people that recognized that Jesus was Who He said He was, would be able to hear and understand the truth. This is the same today. In order to understand what Jesus said and taught, you must believe He is the Son of God and Messiah! After 302, posts you must have some idea as to who He is. Are you ready to follow Him yet?? The choice is yours.
