wesleynt Luke:7:18-35
wesleynt@Luke:7:18 @ And the disciples of John informed him of all these things. And John,
wesleynt@Luke:7:19 @ calling to him two of his disciples, sent to Jesus, saying, Art thou he that should come, or look we for another?
wesleynt@Luke:7:20 @ And the men being come to him, said, John the Baptist hath sent us to thee, saying, Art thou he that should come, or look we for another?
wesleynt@Luke:7:21 @ And in that hour he cured many of diseases and plagues, and of evil spirits, and to many that were blind he gave sight.
wesleynt@Luke:7:22 @ And he answering said to them, Go and tell John the things ye have seen and heard: the blind see; the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed; the deaf hear; the dead are raised; to the poor the gospel is preached.
wesleynt@Luke:7:23 @ And happy is he, whosoever shall not be offended at me.
wesleynt@Luke:7:24 @ And when the messengers of John were departed, he said to the people concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see?
wesleynt@Luke:7:25 @ A reed shaken by the wind? But what went ye out to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold they that are splendidly apparelled, and live delicately, are in kings palaces.
wesleynt@Luke:7:26 @ But what went ye out to see? A prophet? Yea, I say to you, and much more than a prophet.
wesleynt@Luke:7:27 @ This is he of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.
wesleynt@Luke:7:28 @ For I say to you, among those that are born of women, there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist; but he that is least in the kingdom of God, is greater than he.
wesleynt@Luke:7:29 @ And all the people that heard him, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.
wesleynt@Luke:7:30 @ But the Pharisees and scribes made void the counsel of God, toward themselves, being not baptized of him.
wesleynt@Luke:7:31 @ To whom then shall I liken the men of this generation, and to what are they like?
wesleynt@Luke:7:32 @ They are like children sitting in the market-place, and calling one to another, and saying, We have piped to you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned to you, and ye have not wept.
wesleynt@Luke:7:33 @ For John the Baptist came neither eating bread, nor drinking wine; and ye say, He hath a devil.
wesleynt@Luke:7:34 @ The Son of man is come, eating and drinking; and ye say, Behold a gluttonous man and a wine-bibber, a friend of publicans and sinners.
wesleynt@Luke:7:35 @ But wisdom is justified by all her children.
