The Character of Jesus - BOLDNESS

Read Mark 11:15-18.

"and they came to Jerusalem. And He entered the temple and began to cast out those who were buying and selling in the temple..." (v. 15a).

Jesus saw flagrant sin masked with religious trimmings. He knew the evil that was there and was bold enough to "cast them out."

I see wrongdoings but rarely (if ever) am bold enough to speak out against it. I certainly have not been physically opposed to unrighteousness. My God, grow that in me!
