Message: Matt 21:23-32 “Lessonsfrom the Land: The Temple” After Jesus enters Jerusalem to the acclamations of the crowds, he enters the Temple and cleanses it. The religious leaders ask him by what authority he does this. In this message we’ll talk about the Temple, Jesus’ claim to replace the Temple, and our new identity as God’s Temple. How are Jesus’ followers called to be different from the religious leaders Jesus challenged in the Temple?
