Worth hanging onto...

Luke 19:45-48 When Jesus entered the temple courts, he began to drive out those who were selling. “It is written,” he said to them, “‘My house will be a house of prayer’; but you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’” Every day he was teaching at the temple. But the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the leaders among the people were trying to kill him. Yet they could not find any way to do it, because all the people hung on his words. After the triumphal entry, Jesus went right to business. He drove out the materialists to make room for sincere spiritual seekers. And he spoke the truth. It was His Word that kept the enemy at bay. As He spoke, people listened. People long for truth, so they stuck to Jesus. This kept the Jewish leaders from being able to get to Him. When we hang on to the Words of Christ, we are putting ourselves in a safe place. We are keeping the enemy at bay. We are clinging to Truth, and the Truth will set us free.
