It is the Violent Who Take It! Reflecting on A Great, Winning Christian Principle [Matt. 11:12]

The Lord Jesus said, “From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and violent men take it by force” (Matt. 11:12). What exactly did He mean? Beyond salvation, do you enjoy the fruits and benefits of the Kingdom of God in your daily life? Many believers have not been able to get hold of most of the benefits of the full life that Christ has, otherwise, already dearly and fully paid for them at the cross. Some find it hard to maintain the benefits of their redemption, once they have obtained them. There is a reason for this. The answer is to be found in the great but neglected Christian principle to victorious Christian living - It is the Violent Who Take It! [Matt. 11:12]. You ought to refelct on this principle!
