In a way that was the root problem with the Temple in Jerusalem mentioned earlier. You had to buy a sacrifice. The Temple had their own money so you had to change your regular money to temple money to buy the required sacrifice. The Jews were making a tidy little profit on this and that's what Jesus got mad about. It really had nothing to do with Christians or the church as we know it. Any teacher that thinks it did and teaches it that way is guilty of error. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

loppylugs 7,900 Report post Posted April 12, 2019 Slight side topic re. the Temple. Did you know that there is a very strong move towards rebuilding the temple in Jerusalem. Apparently the priests are being trained and much is already in place. when that happens, watch out! The dome of the rock is in the way. Mess with that, and a bunch of very angry Muslims will be looking for a fight. Interesting days! Wonder if you'll have to pay to go in? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
