The G.O.A.T.

Matthew 11:11 Truly I tell you, among those born of women no one has arisen greater than John the Baptist; yet the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

QuickWord: The G.O.AT. As a sports fan yesterday my phone, computer and television was inundated with the reported breaking news that Tom Brady, the 7 time Super Bowl Champion, was retiring from football. Brady is arguably the GOAT, Greatest Of All time of Professional Football Quarterbacks. In the Quickword Jesus speaks of John the Baptist, the forerunner of Christ. Jesus says about John.

- Those born of a woman no one has risen greater than John

- Yet the least in Heaven is greater than John

- What a great honor when Jesus testifies of John and for those who will remain faithful and enter into the kingdom.

My brothers and sisters, on this Sunday Morning, I really want to talk about the one and only GOAT; Jesus Christ! John would testify of Jesus saying: “He who, coming after me, is preferred before me, whose sandal strap I am not worthy to loose.”

Jesus is the GOAT! He was the GOAT in the beginning when the world was created through Him. He was the GOAT when He left the glory of Heaven to come into the world to take away our sins. He was the GOAT when He hung, bled and died at Calvary for you and I. He was the GOAT as He laid in a borrowed tomb for 3 days. He was the GOAT when He got up one Sunday morning with all power in His hands. He is the GOAT now as He sits on the right hand of God the father in Heaven interceding on our behalf. He is the GOAT and one day the GOAT is coming back for His Church. So until the GOAT returns, let’s lift up His name because He is worthy to be praised!
