Do you remember John the Baptist? What a great man! But even that great man had his deep doubts. When he was in prison, he asked his disciples to ask Jesus, “Are you really the Christ or should we look for another?” He asked because Jesus didn’t always speak and act like John thought the Snake Crusher would. Jesus replied, “Go and tell John what you hear and see: the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them” (Matt. 11:4–6). Jesus was indeed the promised Savior!

Shortly before Jesus died, he told his disciples something mind-blowing: “Whoever believes in me will also do the works that I do; and greater works than these will he do, because I am going to the Father” (John 14:12). After Jesus’s resurrection, he ascended to the Father, then he sent the Holy Spirit. Once the Spirit filled God’s people with God’s power, the gospel spread around the world. And, like Jesus, they did some amazing things that showed everyone that a new time in world history had arrived. Do you want to hear an example of those greater works? Well then, listen in.
