Answer:
False
Explanation:
John "the voice calling from the desert", or the second coming of Elijah, knew that Jesus was greater than he was. He knew, for when he was to baptize Jesus, he instead wanted to be baptized by Jesus, but was told to follow what was written. On losing popularity because of Jesus's teachings, which drew gathering crowds away from the prophet John, he did not become angry at Jesus. Instead, he knew that it was the will of God, and stated that "He must increase, I must decrease...". This means that John did know that Jesus was greater than him.
