    A Cursed Fig Tree: That's Weird Series

    This is one of those stories that we often skip over, but it's there for a reason, hopefully, this message sheds some light on that.

    To be completely honest, if I was writing the New Testament this is one story I probably would have skipped. And if you were completely honest you have probably been uncomfortable reading it. It just doesn't fit with our view of Jesus. We can understand when he goes ballistic and clears the ...read more

    Contributed by David Owens on Mar 7, 2022
     | 3,340 views

    On Monday of Jesus' final week of earthly life, he cursed the fig tree and cleansed the temple. Both activities symbolized God's judgment on the fruitless religion of Israel. As disciple of Christ, we must be faithful and fruitful, and not cause others to stumble.

     | 13,056 views

    In this Passage Jesus performed two acts of judgment: He cleansed the Temple, and He cursed a fig tree. Both acts were contrary to His usual manner of ministry, because He did not come to earth to judge, but to save (Jn. 3:17).
