Audacious Love (Jn 2:13-22)
Benjamin Disraeli once said “Success is the child of audacity.” Today I am going to show that Jesus Christ succeeded by knowing the Way and not deviating from that Way. I am also going to show that Jesus is audacious but his heart is pure – and we are supposed to be like him. (During this preaching I saw a vision of Jesus whipping the the unrighteous out of our hearts). Audacity means: 1. Fearlessly, often recklessly daring; bold, adventurous, brave. 2. Unrestrained by convention or propriety; insolent. 3. Spirited and original. Jesus would have equally upset many of today’s leadership to the ‘inth degree. He was so audacious that they killed him for daring to rock the boat they were paddling themselves in. How dare he come into the temple and throw over tables and toss the money all over the floor. What kind of lunatic is this guy who brandishes a whip of cords to drive out traders. Heaven forbid this is not good order! How absolutely outrageous can a devout church-goer be? Ex
