Truth & Doubt: A Study of Matthew 11

It is OK for a believer to doubt! It is the way they handle doubt that matters, and that is dependent not only on the strength of the individual's trust and faith in God, but their available support and willingness to think things through. John the Baptist was God's appointed messenger announcing the imminent arrival of the Messiah to Israel. His ministry came to an abrupt end when Herod put him in prison. It was then, when he had time to think over his six months of energetic ministry, that a niggling doubt came into John's mind, so he immediately sent disciples to Jesus to ask Him the question, "Are you the One that is to come or should we look for another?" just to make sure he had done the right thing in identifying Jesus as the Messiah whom he had never seen. The answer he received from Jesus and the way Jesus challenged the crowds around Him about what they thought of John and his message is the subject of this fascinating study of Matthew 11.
