Beware of the Satanic doctrine that teaches John the Baptist doubted God when he was told directly from God Himself how to recognize the Messiah. Not even Paul, Silas or Peter doubted Jesus when they were in prison.



Anyone who teaches this false doctrine is a deceiver.

Dom, who is saying John the Baptist “doubted God”?

Or, who mentioned anything about Paul, Silas or Peter having prison doubts ?

Your statements make no sense.

I believe it was you quoting from Harry Bethel, (affectionately known as Halo Harry), who claims Jesus was wearing a halo in order to alert John the Baptist

to Jesus’s Messianic credentials.

Was that you?

Seems you’re fond of foreign renderings but only so long as they are sanctified by your leader Harry Bethel—never mind his lack of biblical authority.
