    As Christians we are to be the temple of God - with the Holy Spirit residing in us. What do we place on our tables? Would Jesus be tempted to take out the whip?

    Cleaning Day John 2:12-22 Imagine if you will the most perfect church setting. Perhaps it is Christmas eve – and the sanctuary is decorated beautifully. Very warm and welcoming. This is a special time. Sure, you can come to church any Sunday, but this time is set aside for wondrous events and ...read more

    What consumed Jesus in the temple courts is what should consume all believers - love for God’s house and love for lost souls.

    (The following will be said in a gruff voice to various people in the congregation.) “Move over. Put your bulletin down. Stop looking at me like that. Fold your hands and look at me.” If I was serious about the things I just said, you might wonder: “What’s eating Pastor?” The Disciples wondered ...read more

    The cleansing effect of having a dumpster in your driveway is a amazing. You can get rid of a lot of clutter in your house. In a simlar way, "junk" can gather in each of us who are called to be the temple of the Lord. Jesus cleanses us.

    Every so often, as you drive around the various neighborhoods in these parts, you will notice the presence of dumpsters. Sometimes they are there to collect the waste from construction; sometimes reconstruction; but other times, the dumpster seems to be just for junk. I find this ...read more

    The first thing Jesus did after His triumphal entry into Jerusalem was to clean house. He cleanses the Temple of it’s sinfulness. What can this teach us about the need for purity and holiness in our churches and our personal lives?

    OPEN: About 50 years ago there was a great preacher in the Washington D.C. area named Peter Marshall. I once read one of his sermons and found the following description of the scene we just read about in Matthew: “It is early morning, but already the temple court is a bedlam of activity and noise. ...read more

    Through his cleansing of the temple, Jesus reveals that we must not stand in the way of those who come to worship God.

    Introduction: Have you ever wanted – even needed – something but you couldn’t get it. It was right there in front of you. It was within your reach. But you couldn’t get it.

    This describes Jesus’ cleansing of the Temple, and why He did it: because the leaders were making worship too hard, and too easy.

    John 2:13-25 – How Much Does Worship Cost? We started this passage this morning, but I felt as though I needed another message to give you a better idea of what was happening. This morning dealt with Jesus’ personality and response to injustice. This morning we saw that Jesus was a social ...read more

    Looking at Jesus’ Temple cleansing, we can see He was a social revolutionary and a rebel against the culture, even the religious culture. This sermon calls people to rebel as well, as long as they’re obeying God.

    Jesus challenges us to realize that he is the center of our worship, not our facilities, programs, and activities. Just as he cleansed the temple, so he wants to cleanse us.
