My contribution on the topic above is that the kingdom of God suffered violence in the hand of unbelievers, those that did not believed that there is God and also did not believe in His second coming.
Matthew 11:12 And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.
The above scripture verse means that the children of God that are doing His will have been passing through suffering because they are serving God throughly even before the arrival of Jesus Christ, but He use John the baptist to prepared way that is to tell the children of God that there days of suffering will soon be over. Even Soul in Act 9: 1-2, that persecuted christian to be put to death.
Acts 9:1 And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest, 9:2 And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.
God later arrested Soul on his way to Damascus where he wanted to persecuted christian again.
Acts 9:4 And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? 9:5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.
The Lord will give us more understanding of His word in Jesus name. Thank you.
