But if we say it was just from people, we're gonna have a problem — everyone believes John was a real prophet.

But I'll be straight with you about this — they're calling my faith a 'dangerous cult,' but I'm actually worshiping the same God my ancestors did. I believe everything that's written in the Law and the Prophets.

But now it's all out in the open! Through the writings of the prophets and by God's eternal command, this message is being spread to every nation so people everywhere can respond with faith.
