The Right Christian Mentality : Practicing Biazo

Matthew 11:12 (KJV) says, "And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force." 

 

In this message, Reverend Kodwo Orleans-Lindsay preaches on "The Right Mentality of a Christian," using the concept of "biazo," the Greek word meaning "to force." Without a forceful attitude, we cannot be good and effective Christians. Like Esau, those who refuse to apply force will let their birthright just slip away. Every Christian faces trials. Every Christian will have difficulties. But what sets successful ones apart is their drive to fight and win. We cannot find success without "biazo," the ability to force our way through. 

 

May God grant us the spirit of biazo, so that we may stand and fight.
