John chose to introduce Jesus' public ministry with His presence in Jerusalem during the Passover. The synoptic records indicate that He'd been preaching and ministering throughout Galilee prior to this time, suggesting that John chose to begin here (taking a thematic rather than chronological approach) in order to highlight the central role Jerusalem would play in His mission and its accomplishment. The specific incident John recounted was Jesus' cleansing of the temple. This message examines that incident and its significance in John's gospel account.

Great Sermon! Do you wonder how the Jews rejected Jesus, the one promised throughout the O.T. (missed their day of visitation)? Do you wonder how Paul, a Pharisee of Pharisees and Nicodemus The teacher of Israel initially missed Him? And what about us two thousand years later. How do we know we're not making the same mistake? Jesus said in Matthew 7:21-23 that many will say to me Lord Lord, yet they must depart from Him because he never knew them. Listen to this sermon Christian. It is worthy of your time and more importantly worthy of your witness to the one true God, the Holy One of Israel, the Messiah, Jesus the Son and the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. Keep learning disciple!
