Miriamā¦ Jesus did not begin his ministry until John the Baptist had baptized him then if you recall, he chose his 12 and went into the desert. When he came back, he sent a messenger to ask if he was the one. Not very long after that John was in jail and then he was beheadedā¦ so neither books of the Bible were written by him. John The Baptist has been referred to as one of the last people of the Old Covenantā¦ often supported by Matthew 11:11
11 Amen I say to you, there hath not risen among them that are born of women a greater than John the Baptist: yet he that is the lesser in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. (because those in heaven were from the new covenant until Jesus was crucified and descended to Shoel and retrieved them and brought them to heaven)
Ruslan was absolutely correct.
