Why John the Baptist doesn't deserve accolades.

Stephen Cruz Saintsoul Adoga At the time of the first coming, the people were waiting for the Messiah to come and before the Messiah comes, Elijah was promised to come first as written in Malachi 4.5. Also, there were opposite prophecies about how Jesus was to come. One said he was coming with the clouds and the other said he will be born by a woman.

So, the coming of Elijah was the key thing to use in knowing the coming of the Messiah. When Jesus emerged and was teaching as the Messiah, most people did not accept because Elijah had not come. This is why they were asking of Elijah. Jesus explained to them that John the Baptist was Elijah and if the people agree with that then Jesus could be the Messiah. When John denied being Elijah, it meant that the Messiah was yet to come. This is why they opposed and rejected Jesus and had him murdered
