Yesterday's sermon, which I turned into a blog post with accompanying audio, video, and notes:
https://www.scottlapierre.org/jesus-cleanses-the-temple/
The second instance of Jesus cleansing the temple of corruption is in all three synoptic Gospels (Matthew 21:12-16, Mark 11:15-18, Luke 19:45-48). The first instance is only in John 2:12-25 right after the wedding at Cana when Jesus’ ministry began. The first thing Jesus did after his ministry began was cleanse the temple, and the first thing he did after making his triumphal entry into Jerusalem was cleanse the temple. These two cleansings serve as bookends on Jesus’ three-year ministry and reveal his heart for “pure and undefiled religion” (James 1:27).

Achan thought his sin was private — that nobody would know and nobody would get hurt. But in Joshua 7, we see that hidden sin always brings painful consequences.
This message reminds us that unconfessed sin affects not only us, but those around us — our families, churches, and communities. Yet through confession and repentance, there’s always mercy and restoration in Christ.
