Matthew 11:12
Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In this content, Steve Gregg discusses Matthew 11:12 and the violent opposition that Jesus and his followers encountered. Gregg states that the word "violent" in this passage refers to those who are forceful and determined to enter the kingdom, even if it means facing opposition. He further explains that the New Testament represents a new covenant, with Jesus as its primary messenger, and that John the Baptist was the final voice of the Old Testament prophesying the coming of the Messiah. Overall, Gregg emphasizes the idea that those who truly seek to enter the kingdom of God must do so with determination and perseverance in the face of opposition.
