Hi! and happy good Thursday to all of us, GUYS. Our "food for the soul" today:
THE GOOD NEWS (08 December 2016)
"I tell you this: no one greater than John the Baptist has come forward among the sons of women, and yet the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven is something to be conquered and the unyielding seize it.
Up to the time of John, there was only prophesy: all the prophets and the Law; and if you believe ME, John is this Elijah, whose coming was predicted. Let anyone with ears listen!" - Matthew 11:11-15
(No one greater than John the Baptist has come forward. This verse refers to a prophet or to a political leader.
The kingdom of heaven is something to be conquered and the unyielding seize it. This sentence could also be translated: "The kingdom of heaven is advancing forcefully." The kingdom of GOD is the moving force that makes history progress, taking advantage of both gentle and violent changes in human life. The believers are called to participate actively in this constant transformation. Death and resurrection are at work among us and all over the world.)
