    Jesus Cleans His Father's House

     | 7,610 views

    Was Jesus cleansing the temple a random act or was there something far deeper?

    The Passover is not something most Christians give much thought to, unless they come across it in their bible readings. It was however the most important feast the Jews celebrated. It would be like our thanksgiving. It was a festive time and also a time of reflection. Like our communion tables ...read more

    Prayer And The Obedience Of Faith

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Oct 24, 2023
     | 853 views

    We have access to grace and eternal life with the Blessed Trinity precisely because of their obedience, and our imitation of them by the obedience of faith.

    Saturday of the 29th Week in Course 2023 Our Lord frequently prayed at night, perhaps because His fame spread so widely in a short time that people desperate for help surrounded Him every day (except perhaps the Sabbath). So what did He do when praying? We can learn a great deal from His ...read more

    The Withered Fig Tree.

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 17, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,653 views

    Today’s passage brings together two events which are not unrelated to each other: the cleansing of the Temple, and the withering of the fig tree. Both are figurative of the state and changing status of the old Jewish faith at the dawn of the gospel era.

    THE WITHERED FIG TREE. Mark 11:12-33. I. The Barren Fig Tree. Mark 11:12-14; Mark 11:20-26. As we see Jesus approaching the fig tree (Mark 11:12-13), we need to recollect that Jesus is God. The fig tree is a well-known symbol of Israel: ‘every man under his vine and his fig tree’ (cf. ...read more

    "a Carnival Of Corruption" Lent 3

    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Feb 28, 2024
     | 1,117 views

    Carnival time is often a time of chaos. Jesus created chaos because of the corruption in the Jerusalem temple. The cleansing of the temple is the "judgement" of God against commercial robbery of the poor by the religious establishment. Jesus is the replacement.

    If there had only been an Ezra, only part of the job would have gotten done. If there had only been a Nehemiah, only part of the job would have gotten done. God needed both men to accomplish the goal.

    April 15, 2023 Today we are combining the books of Ezra and Nehemiah into 1 story – Return from Exile The 70 years were up. It was now time for God to act. He moved the heart of Cyrus, king of Persia, to allow the Jews to return home. The Exiles returned to Judea in 3 separate waves over a ...read more

     | 2,732 views

    Even as Jeremiah tried to prevent the destruction and misery their rebellion had brought, the people only hardened their hearts and stubbornly refused to listen.

    May 06, 2023 Jeremiah was born during the reign of Manasseh – Judah’s worst king. When Manasseh’s grandson, Josiah, came to the throne he attempted to undo everything Manasseh had done. He removed the idols from the land, but he couldn’t remove idol worship from the hearts of the people. ...read more
