In his triumphant entry to Jerusalem, Jesus juxtaposes power and weakness. In cleansing the temple, he restores God's sanctuary for the benefit of everyone. When he curses the fig tree, he shows how his power should be fruitful in us.

In today's society, absolute truth is thought of to be the enemy of freedom. But truth is more important than you think, freedom is a lot more complex than you think, and Jesus is a lot more liberating than you think. Surrendering to God's absolute truth gives you a deeper, richer freedom in every area, without oppression.
