Im seeing john as the model for the church. In the sense it was he that prepared the way for the coming..

But also John for a model to reawaken the now lukewarm church that is afraid to confront the world to not be what the world calls judgmental

When asked for the truth.. just like being on the witnesses stand in court. . You must say the truth.. you must speak as a witness to the truth...or you commit perjury.. you don't have to be arrogant about it.. but you must speak the truth

[Mrs. Don-o]

Amen to that.
