And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.
~Matthew 11:12~
For all you non-Holy Rollers – and Holy Roller wannabes – out there, this is probably one of the most misinterpreted verses in the Bible.
If you’re thinking “What the heck does this Bible verse have to do with the market?” …the answer is simple.
Not much.
But it does have to do with the road to perdition that our nation is currently on.
Huh?
Before you hit the unsubscribe button, hear me out.
First, this verse does NOT mean using violence like the Antifa/BLM sissy boyz are using, claiming they’ll “burn the whole system down.”
Their false bravado is pathetic at best.
What Jesus was saying in Matt 11:12 was that before the time of John the Baptist, the only way to approach God was through the Old Testament laws and sacrifices.
The phrase “suffereth violence” is translated from the Greek word “BIAZO.”
It means “to force, i.e. (reflexively) to crowd oneself (into), or (passively) to be seized or press in to.”
Once John kicked his preaching into high gear, multitudes – who previously were not actively seeking God – began flocking to the wilderness to be baptized.
In order to receive the message that JtB preached, they were “violently resolved” in their zeal and forcefully pressing in to the kingdom of heaven. (Taking it by force)
This enabled them to overcome any obstacle or opposition posed by laws, traditions, unbelief, or any power Satan threw at them.
Why is this important today?
As we begin the second half of 2020, The Year of Chaos, you should expect the boyz behind the global madness we’re living in to turn up the heat…pun intended.
Forced lockdowns, preventing people from worshipping in churches and other blatant violations of our Constitutional God given rights, is flat out evil.
WE [America] are facing one of our greatest crossroads in history.
Today, as in the days of John the Baptist, Satan many elected officials are opposing the preaching of the Gospel, and only those who are violently resolved to receive God’s best will have it.
Violent Resolve doesn’t mean looting, rioting or destroying property.
It does, however, prepare you to overcome false doctrines, ungodly laws, and corrupt politicians/club members who are openly trying to destroy America.
Eventually we all must choose what side we’re on.
The question is, will you “Just Take the Vaccine?”
