John 1:6-7 tells it straight:
 
<blockquote>A man named John was sent from God. He came for testimony, to testify to the light [Christ]</blockquote>
 
This was most confusing to the pharisees, who, John tells us, couldn't get their heads around the idea that John was baptizing people, yet denied that he was the Messiah.[1]
 
Yet, we ourselves, it seems, are mystified by John the Baptist, as well.
