WHEN JESUS …ROSE UP, STOOD UP and (SELF GOVERNED, RESPECTFULLY) ACTED OUT<\/span> As the Sweet Infant Christ grew up a<\/strong>nd matured he started to know more. He began to notice deep injustice around the region. He eye witnessed oppressive, agonizing slavery, great tragedy, sickness, uncleanness…the repeated signs of abuse, also desperate wearing deep poverty..and the inequality of wealthy and poor.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Add to this, Jesus was confronted<\/strong> with the local harsh treatment the controlling Roman Government, many area children being sacrificed to false idols..all under the name of “true authority”. He saw the number offerings and collections taken by the ambitious, exceedingly fierce Pharisee temple system …and how they put great pressure on the people ..even repeatedly used and abused people..for these had become increasingly jaded, impure and emotionally tough…the majority of the ministers were mentally calloused and office hurried, self important and shallow insincere…And of this deeply troubled Jesus…and frequently bothered his pure heart and gentle compassionate spirit..<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Increasingly,\u00a0 Jesus grew more<\/strong> and more concerned..even grieved, agonized it wore on him…..as he realized that\u00a0 was untrue and that something was deeply intrinsically “ministry systemic” REALLY wrong.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n And that meant on Eternal Truth 2 levels.<\/span><\/p>\n (the first level) John 3:16\/I John 3:8<\/span><\/strong> <\/p>\n The Holy Spirit deep inside of Him<\/strong> pointed out that all of this (sickness, death, abuse, demonic effects) were caused by sin..and that was something that no human person had control over….UNLESS HE Himself would be willing to lay down his life.<\/span><\/p>\n Yet that was the overview..which would come later.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n (the second level) WHAT GOES ON IN HIS FATHER’S HOUSE<\/span> <\/p>\n Yet they always claimed<\/strong> that the temple coffers were empty, “that Jehovahs Holy House was in need..” so they then would demand another collection.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Christ had been long aware of the money<\/strong> changing going on in his own Creator Father’s House, even though the House was Run under The Torah Law.<\/span><\/p>\n Not everything local Pharisees<\/strong> and Sadducees, usually well thought of, ministry authorities did was right. And Jesus the grass roots long suffering Messiah could not help but notice.<\/span><\/p>\n He was upset<\/strong> when he how taking in money was far important to the Priests than their hearts toward the One True Living God and the they regarded, respected the everyday common people..whom they targeted, ever pressured and used MUCH of the temple offerings for themselves.<\/span><\/p>\n Increasingly many of the top leader<\/strong>s had grown comfortable and also callous..meaning toward the call to their ministry and to the every day folks.<\/span><\/p>\n More more it appeared that bringing in<\/strong> the money was taking top priority of the compassion and understanding and patience that it required to truly represent the caring Creator Father to many people. And they taking life for granted.<\/span><\/p>\n So this really bugged the Messiah Christ.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Even while Christ had grown up around these people<\/strong>, now as young man burning with zeal for his Father’s Holy House…which back in Isaiah 56:7 was described as “a house of prayer for ALL people’ He had now self importance, undue sternness, being short tempered and elite toward the poor, the every people and those with handicaps, mental health issues and lack of eduction was making “going to temple ” less about the Love Of the Father and more about being elevated in a position of well known offices , perceived power and the bowing and scraping hierarchy which pressured the poor as well as the rich for MORE.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n It was the “zeal” for his Eternal Father’s House<\/strong> which motived Jesus. NOT offense, wrath or accusation, any rebellion, rather it was for the humble, the poor and the false religions who needed to know more about the TRUE Creator.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n And Jesus was not MAD at the Pharisee<\/strong> ministry offices, but was righteously and maturely FED UP..and in the process of long many ministry years repeatedly OBSERVING… had forever been very patient, enduring, with much long suffering.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Furthermore the Gentle Jesus and had<\/strong> checked in first his Father in the Garden Gethsemene to seek, to pray and to pour out his anguish about all of that…yet also…he knew that he ought to FIRST\u00a0 inquire of his Father about how HE wanted the his blessed song, the young Messiah,\u00a0 to handle it.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n In Book of John Jesus had a practice;(See John 5:19-20)<\/strong> He stated about himself “I say nothing unless I first see the Father say it” “I do nothing unless I first see the Father do it'” …<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Thus, gaging by the young Savior’s actions.<\/strong>..he\u00a0 evidently, had “SEEN and HEARD” following CLEARLY..implying that his Father, the Lord God had given Jesus clear instructions…Which were….to go on a “certain day”..at a “specific\u00a0 ‘time’ and then to\u00a0 “say a certain thing’\u00a0 directly to them..Also, he was directed to shock and awe, but reverencially\u00a0 (meaning in Holy Fear of the Lord style) ..A Purpose..to make them think. To shock them from their deceived stupor .<\/span><\/p>\n CAUTION ASIDE\u00a0 OLD TESTAMENT FRUITS “My house shall be a house of prayer for all (Types, styles, races, genders, social strata of well to do and houseless, varies vibes and style of imperfect) peoples” Back on the trail:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n And this is why we note the Savior<\/strong> picking up the money making tables” and tossing them\u00a0 completely over..thus wrecking their well organized, efficient, however usury business system. (this is the writer’s opinion) ..Again, this “act of un-harmful but “spiritual” violence (as in not weapons or striking)… would try\u00a0 to wake up them up as they were blind guides and “used\u00a0 to it” … big indifferent and living in a gentrified “usual”\u00a0 spiritual stupor ….This left God’s Temple Rulers imperceptive, void of mature deep awareness and clueless about the intentions of God’s House, it’s true (See ISAIAH 56:7) purposes and mean, short tempered, biased and abrupt with the common people who were far less off and not as educated or monetarily esteemed.(just like today!).<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Any person, minister or group or society wh<\/strong>ich is devoid of holy fear of the Lord, which is ministry dull of perceiving and discerning\u00a0 means that is it MONEY CENTERED for by the Bible Scriptures (attaining holy fear of the Lord (Proverbs 9:10 “which is the beginning of true WISDOM”)READ Proverbs2:1-5 ..However, ever more significantly , the telling tale of God’s Leaders Isaiah 1-3 producing National Woe Isaiah 5:20, which blocked the National Move of God Isaiah 10.. FINALLY ..the achievement prosperity avarice First Love Mammon priestly focus had dulled and blinded and corrupted God’s own faith filled “believing”Leaders… see Psalm 115 about idols”) ..<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Eternal Father God understood that<\/strong> it would require a PROPHETIC ACT which would SHOCK AND AWE yet not demean, hurt them or disrespect the Temple Offices who were Jesus elders.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n However Jesus went over there<\/strong>, realizing his whole family as his disciples and their relatives, would all be defamed, mocked, accused, lied about and rejected for they would label them “rebellious” “out of order” “violating the Levitical and being “unsubmitted, fully out of order”..and would forever be black listed and talked against (again my opinion based up society)<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Yet had prayed, clearly<\/strong> heard from the Father and understand that from the Eternal Viewpoint, that this was Something that should be done …despite.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n So Jesus proceeded forth<\/strong>, and did take any of his disciples with him (nobody cat called the temple priests as they walked in to work on that day..Jesus had no weapons and did now word curse, swear or bully, dominate)** Intentional lesson for Today!<\/span><\/p>\n JESUS AND THE INFLUENCE OF AREA ROMAN PATRICIANISM<\/strong> (Google Roman Patricians)(venerable aristocracy ..the fruit of ROME in GOVERNMENT and MONEY, POSITION, POWER, BE IN DOMINATING CONTROL CENTRIC<\/span><\/p>\n We must leader note the well know<\/strong>n statements about Caesar, who was a pagan murderer. He persecuted the saved Christians.<\/span><\/p>\n “RENDER unto Caesar the things which are Caesars, render unto God the things which are God’s”<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n “Hail Caesar!”<\/strong> (swearing devoted loyalty to the ULTRA MAGA TOP …elevated top power, achievement and mega wealth)<\/span><\/p>\n “We have come to bury Caesar, not to praise him<\/strong>” William Shakespeare\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n ALL OF THIS is an interjection of a giant\u00a0 historical concept which also played into the society at the similar day and time period when the <\/strong>\u00a0offscouring First Church started to emerge and to assess and to attempt to plough the ministry dysfunctional land..<\/span><\/p>\n THE PHARISEE STORY<\/span><\/p>\n Matthew 21:12-13 is a passag<\/strong>e in the Bible that tells the story of Jesus entering the temple in Jerusalem and driving out the merchants and money changers. The passage reads:<\/span><\/p>\n “Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out<\/strong> all who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves. ‘It is written,’ he said to them, ‘My house will be called a house of prayer, but you are making it a den of robbers.'”<\/span><\/p>\n In this story, Jesus i<\/strong>s visiting the temple in Jerusalem, which was considered the center of Jewish religious life at the time. He finds that the temple courts have been overrun by merchants and money changers, who were buying and selling goods and services to the people who had come to worship.<\/span><\/p>\n Jesus is outraged by this and takes action<\/strong>. He drives out all of the merchants and money changers, overturning their tables and benches. He makes it clear that the temple is supposed to be a house of prayer, not a marketplace for commerce.<\/span><\/p>\n This act by Jesus is significant for several reasons<\/strong>. First, it shows his strong conviction that the temple should be a place of worship and devotion, not a place for commercial transactions. Second, it demonstrates Jesus’s authority and power, as he is able to drive out the merchants and money changers with just his words and actions. Third, it shows that Jesus is not afraid to challenge the status quo and speak out against injustice and corruption.<\/span><\/p>\n In this passage, Jesus is fulfilling the prophecy<\/strong> of Isaiah 56:7, which says “My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations.” He was purifying the temple of all the commercial activities.<\/span><\/p>\n Finally, this story also foreshadows<\/strong> Jesus’s ultimate sacrifice and death on the cross, as he will soon be arrested, tried, and crucified for his teachings and actions.<\/span><\/p>\n POINT: According to JOHN 5:19-20 “<\/strong>Jesus did and said what his Creator told him..by faith. And he was not famous in that day..but a renegade whom they probably accused as contentious, offended, their ministry junior critic..a jealous wannabe troublemaker and\/or another black sheep and usurper…. of THEIR Mantled Authority** (**meaning…just like today)<\/span><\/p>\n And we may conclude..t<\/strong>hat even while this Temple Upset occurred all of those many hundreds of years ago that<\/span><\/p>\n . “WHAT HAPPENED IN JESUS HEAVENLY FATHER’S HOUSE DID NOT STAY IN JESUS HEAVENLY FATHER’S HOUSE”.<\/strong>…and we can begin to learn from that right now Today.<\/span><\/p>\n TO SOW INTO DFW LEADER MINISTRY FELLOWSHIP<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\nThe first level concerned Jesus Coming Mission..his pain, death on the rugged Cross, yet with a Giant Purpose..a Victory… to hand back via faith, the power over sin and death, sickness and poverty (I John 3:8) and to give the Holy Spirit (Acts 2, Galatians 5:22-23) via private personal relationship with any and every Believer. The Call for Eternal Salvation and healing, Book of Acts power to Live the Live in a mature relationship..while we are still here! (summary view of that)<\/span><\/p>\n
\nSee Matthew 21:1-23 The Pharisees<\/span><\/strong>
\nFor now, Jesus interacted<\/strong> with as well as watched the Pharisees and noted how his Father’s house all about money and no longer a safe place of compassionate respect and refuge. It was biased , anti the poor and in favor of the well off, it accepted bribes and played favorites. It no longer respected EVERY ONE..only certain “preferred accepted types” And by now the local Pharisee temple “blessed” elite” offices..cold, mean, accusing, self justifying and Nouveau Wealthy superior..<\/span><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/www.taveauleader.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Screen-Shot-2023-01-18-at-1.43.25-PM.png\")
