Shane Koehler – In light of what Jesus told his disciples in chapter 10 on the nature of “True Disciples” and on the heels of answering questions posed by John the Baptist, Jesus defends the character of John, who himself is an object lesson of what you may face in this world in sharing the Gospel. In this passage, Jesus highlights two standards in the life of John that would apply to all of Jesus’s disciples, both then and in the ages to come. 12/12/2021
