Walking with Jesus: Jesus's Boldness

Walking with Jesus: Jesus's Boldness by ric Gustafson


The Pharisees and Sadducees occupied an important place in first century Jewish life. They were highly regarded as experts in Jewish law. Jesus knew that challenging them was a risk. But he did what he had to do.
In Luke 11: 37-54, Jesus has an encounter between himself and the religious leaders. Jesus gave an indictment of greed, egotism, hypocrisy and misplaced priorities. Because of these encounters, the religious authorities began to conspire against Jesus. They came up with a plan to get rid of this Rabbi from Galilee.
We as Jesus's followers should boldly, fearlessly and prayerfully speak out in Jesus's power.
