Matthew 11:10-13

10This is the one about whom it is written: ‘Look, I am sending my messenger ahead of you, who will prepare your way before you.’

11“I tell you the truth, among those born of women, no one has arisen greater than John the Baptist. Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he is.

12From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and forceful people lay hold of it.

13For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John appeared.
