How do you resolve your doubts?
Who was John the Baptist?
What did John the Baptist do with his doubts?
-Having doubts is part of the human condition
-The question is; do we manage our doubts in a Godly way or a worldly way
John went to Jesus; Jesus pointed to himself, through scripture

Psalm 6:1-10
Scripture regarding John the Baptist
Luke 1:5-25, 39-45
Matthew 3:1-17, 17:1-12
John 1:19-34, 3:22-36
Two prophetic passages that John the Baptist would have been aware of: Isaiah 53:3-12, 9:6-7
One of these prophetic passages was fulfilled approximately 2000 years ago. The other has yet to occur (already not yet).
Conflating these two passages could cause one to doubt.
The solution to our doubt, confusion and/or anxiety is to seek Jesus and to examine scripture. There are scriptures that explain how Jesus is the solution to every circumstance or challenge.
