Summary
The great preacher of Victorian England Charles Spurgeon once remarked, “I do not believe there ever existed a Christian yet, who did not now and then doubt his interest in Jesus. I think, when a man says, ‘I never doubt,’ it is quite time for us to doubt him.” It’s reassuring that even a spiritual heavyweight like John the Baptist experienced doubts. Let’s see how Jesus helped him.
I. The Ambivalence of John
A. Experiential Doubts
B. Intellectual Doubts
C. Societal Doubts
D. Moral Doubts
II. The Answer of Jesus
A. He Answered Directly
B. He Answered Verbally
C. He Answered Practically
D. He Answered Patiently
Talk with God: Meditate on Mark 9:23-24 and ask the Lord to give you wisdom and peace as you seek to address your own doubts and unbelief.
Talk with others: Encourage a fellow believer who’s wrestling with doubt or questioning their faith by reminding them that God can handle their questions (see James 1:5).
Talk with kids: What did Job learn about God?
