    Contributed by Ron Murphy on Feb 23, 2007
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,606 views

    What really got Jesus’ dandur up. Was it selling for a profit, or a superficial following?

    Introduction: I. Down south there is a familiar saying that goes something like, “That just get’s my dander up.” A. Now I’m now real sure what “dander” is or where the term came from, but B. The idea is; to get ones “dander” up, is to get excited about something, typically an angry type of ...read more

    Individual followers of Christ are Jesus’ "house" - His dwelling place - making Jesus’ cleansing of the temple also a call to personal holiness.

    Jesus’ House TCF Sermon April 1, 2007 Mark 11:7-11 (NIV) 7 When they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, he sat on it. 8 Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields. 9 Those who went ahead and those who followed ...read more

    Clearing The Bench Series

    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

    Sermon compares Jesus’ act of cleansing the Temple with the way He feels about many of our churches.

    Introduction: Three weeks ago we looked at the Compassion of Christ. We saw how Jesus showed compassion to a Widow who had lost her son, a man who was suffering from leprosy, and over 4000 people who were hot, tired and hungry. This morning I want us to look at a passage of Scripture that deals ...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. It was in front of you, you wanted it and yet something or someone prevented you from having what you wanted. We’ve all ...read more

    We all have expectations of who Jesus is and what He is about. Are yours correct? Jesus’ family, friends, and even His enemies had misconceptions about His real purpose.

    What is Jesus to you? It’s an honest question. A recent online poll found that 37% said Jesus may or may not have even existed and that there is no way to know for sure, 23% said that the gospels are a bunch of fictional tales, 16% say that he may have existed but so many myths have grown up around ...read more

    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.

    John 2:13-25 – Called to be Rebels You may have heard of Emily Post. She was born in the early 1870’s and died in 1960. She was the Martha Stewart of her day.

    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.

    “The True Temple” John 2: 13 – 22 Introduction: Right now in theatres you can go see the movie version of C.S Lewis’s The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, and having seen it a few weeks ago, I can tell you that it is a great movie – and for the most part it is pretty faithful to the book.

    Does our worship honour God by including by being devoted to his glory?

    No source is known for a compendium of ’12 reasons why I don’t wash (or go to church), though it sounds as though it must have come from a small boy. It goes like this: 1. I was forced to wash as a child 2. I’m not dirty 3. I’ll wait until I’m older, then I’ll be dirtier 4. There are too many ...read more

    If Christ showed such zeal in cleansing an earthly temple, He will use zeal in cleansing another temple, the believer’s life, also.

    JOHN 2: 13-17 CHRIST CLEANSING THE TEMPLE The other Evangelists do not record this cleansing of the Temple at the beginning of Christ’s ministry, but, as we all know, tell of a similar act at the very close of Jesus’ ministry (Mt. 21:12f; Mk. 11:15-17; Lk. 19:45f). John, ...read more

     | 8,634 views

    Jesus has not changed in 2,000 years. He is still passionate about His temple. The temple of God is no longer a building, it is His people. God no longer dwells in a temple made by hands, He lives in us, and His passion, His zeal is the same today as it w

    Jesus: the Great Purifier (John 2:12-25) “I’m Sarah, I’m sixteen; Last night I failed. I prayed for more strength, So why did I yield? He said he loved me, Brought me flowers and all; Then he took me upstairs And caused me to fall. I feel so ashamed, So dirty inside. He’s taken my heart; Now I ...read more
