He found in the temple area those who sold oxen, sheep, and doves,
as well as the money-changers ....
He made a whip out of cords
and drove them all out of the temple area, with the sheep and oxen,
and spilled the coins of the money-changers

and to those who sold doves He said, 'Take these out of here,
and stop making my Father’s House a marketplace.'"

our Stronghold is the God of Jacob."

+ "... I came down from Heaven not to do My own Will
but the Will of the One who sent Me.
... this is the Will of my Father,
that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him
may have Eternal Life,
and I shall raise him on the last day.
+ "The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want"
+ "We know that our old self was crucified with Him,
so that our sinful body might be done away with,
that we might no longer be in slavery to sin.
...
If, then, we have died with Christ,
we believe that we shall also live with Him.
We know that Christ, raised from the dead, dies no more;
death no longer has power over Him."
