Thursday of the Second Week of Advent

Amen I say to you, among those born of women, there has arisen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet the least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. But from the days of John the Baptist, even until now, the kingdom of heaven has endured violence, and the violent carry it away.
