Johns doubt at this time was due to
physical i'll health, on account of his
long confinement in unhealthy surround
ings. He spoke in the highest terms of
him and showed that in essence there
was no wavering about Him. John was
the greatest man the world had ever
produced up to that time; not so much
for what he was, as for what he did.
But even so great as John was, Jesus
said that the most insignificant one in
the kingdom of heaven was greater than
he. This was due to the relationship
which the subjects of the kingdom bore
to the King Himself In a way, this
made His claim greater than it had been
before, and was an antidote to any pois-
on which the doubt of John might have
cast
His defense of John must also have
been prompted by the action of the
Pharisees for Jesus Immediately de-
nounced them for their inconsistency.
Nothing would please them. John had
lived in austere, even severe, life;
and they denounced him as an ascetlc.
Whereas Jesus had mingled with the
people, had taken part in their social
life, had acted in these respects exact
ly opposite to what John had done;
this did not please them; they called
Him a wine bibber and a glutton.
DOUBT AND GREATNESS.
The way to answer doubt, and the
way to attain greatness. are suggested
in this passage. Doubt is best an
swered by doing. Some very severe
criticisms have been made against the
church in the past few years. Many
of the criticisms were not wholly I'M
founded The church has not been fol-
lowing fully in the footsteps of the
Master. The church finds herself con-
fronted with a serious situation. The
large majority Of it's members are will
ing to carry on the old plan which in
many respects has proved itseII made
duate So great is this majority that
any effort on the part of the minority
to meet the needs of mankind as Je-
sus did is met with most unconcealed
opposition. The way to answer doubt.
the way to make the growing OPPOSE
ton realize that the church is some
thing more than a social club, and a

terested in the bodily, mental and spir-
itual uplift OF every man, regardless of
las station or occupation. Fortunately
through the efforts of the Men and Re-
ligion Movement the correct emphasis
is being laid on this today.
And in this way, we find the answer
to the question as to the way to great
ness. John Baptist had attained re-
marKable distinction; but the nearness
with which we may come to Christ
gives us the opportunity to be greater
than he.
