An ApplicationJohn was one of many who got tripped up because God did not live up to his expectations. Later, Peter and Judas Iscariot, and constantly we read about the religious leaders, who expected the Messiah to act one way, but when they meet Him, He acted another, and they couldn't let go of their expectations more see past them to see what God was really doing.

Connect the DotsJohn wasn't the first to go to prison for God: JER 33:1 (among countless unnammed people). / John maybe didn't hear and doesn't seem to have intuited LK 17:10. / I wrote a full blog post on this topic of expectations (called paradigms) during Jesus's earthly ministry, here.
