He was smooth and pulled in numerous individuals who wished to be sanctified through water by John. As Christ dropped by one day, John remembered him as the Messiah and sanctified through water him. At the point when Jesus left, John kept lecturing however was not long after caught in light of the fact that he fell into difficulty with the ruler of Israel, Herod.
