    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Jan 31, 2010
    based on 17 ratings
     | 21,276 views

    No wonder Jesus was upset, the Jews were not only to worship God but bring others to worship God. They had a place were the Gentiles could come to worship, but they had made it nearly impossible for the Gentiles to worship.

When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and the oxen, and ...read more
