Whenever people asked John the Baptist about who he was, he was quick to say he wasn’t the promised king (see John 1:19–20). But he was like Jesus in one way—both of them died a cruel death. And with both of them, it seemed like evil had defeated good. But John the Baptist was right when he said that Jesus was far greater than him (see John 1:27, 30). Jesus rose up from the grave. Death and evil couldn’t hold him. And the Bible ends with Jesus bringing in a perfect kingdom. In the end, good triumphs over evil. Jesus wins! His resurrection proves that. Hallelujah!
