Published 3 months ago
Description
What was Jesus truly doing when He cursed the fig tree and then overturned the tables in the temple?
In Mark 11, Zach, Jill, and Brandon delve into the connection between the fig tree incident and the temple scene. They explain that Jesus wasn’t cursing people for their struggles with sin. Instead, He was exposing a system of counterfeit, fruitless religion that appeared vibrant on the surface but was devoid of genuine substance. In some instances, this system was even built for personal gain. Jesus knows we won’t be sinless, but he is clearly against using religion as a front for self gain.
