Matthew 11:11-12 ESV

Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has arisen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force.

“A parallel is to think of God’s light as being more like a laser beam than a street lamp. It burns away at the sin in our lives so that we might be purified and gradually become more like Jesus.”

* 하나님과 소원하면 징크스에 착근하나, 이는 미련한 짓이다. 우리의 생사화복은 하나님께 있다. 최고의 하나님께 나의 최선을 드리자. 이것이 천국을 침노하는 힘이요, 하나님의 통치를 경험하는 삶이다. 하나님 임재에 점유된 자는 지상의 누구보다 강하다.
