Proof: John the baptist knew Jesus Christ as the one Lord God Almighty

Matthew 11: 3, 5

Look at the importance of this scripture. John the Baptist knew that Jesus would be God himself based on the teachings in Isaiah (Isaiah 35:4-6). However, before John died, he wanted to make sure that he did not make a mistake in declaring the coming of God. John knew that Isaiah had said we should make straight in the desert a highway for our God. Our God is Jesus Christ (Isaiah 40:3, Matthew 3:3). Therefore, John the Baptist said in Matthew 11:3, “Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another?

When Jesus told him that the blind receive their sight, and the lame walk, etc., John realized that Isaiah had foretold the things that God would do and John also realized that this was the God that he was looking for. The one God manifested in the flesh (I Timothy 3:16). John realized that the same God who was in the Spirit, is the same God who is now in the flesh (Acts 9:1-5).
