    Contributed by Clark Tanner on Nov 9, 2000
    based on 146 ratings

    What Are Your Expectations Of The Messiah?

    Contributed by Philip Gill on Feb 10, 2003
    based on 51 ratings
     | 6,975 views

    When John heard in prison what the Messiah was doing, he sent word by his disciples and said to him, "Are you the one who is to come, or are we to wait for another?" Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John what you hear and see: the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, ...read more
