One of the greatest compliments ever paid to Jesus came from his disciples during the Lord’s cleansing of the temple in John 2. As Jesus was driving the moneychangers out of the temple, the disciples remembered the Scripture that said, “Zeal for your house has eaten me up” (John 2:17). In other words, the actions of Jesus made people think of God’s word.

Wouldn’t it be great if, when people witnessed our interactions with people, Scripture would be brought to their minds?  Friends, why don’t we make that our goal.  Let’s so speak and behave that when people hear and see us, they are reminded of Scripture.
