Mark 11:32
30 John’s baptism—was it from heaven or from men? Answer Me!”
31 They deliberated among themselves what they should answer: “If we say, ‘From heaven,’ He will ask, ‘Why then did you not believe him?’
But if we say, ‘From men’...” they were afraid of the people, for they all held that John truly was a prophet.
33 So they answered, “We do not know.” And Jesus replied, “Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things.”
