Would anyone dispute that the church, the body of Christ, is the Temple of and for today? That God does not dwell in buildings made with hands? That the meeting of the church is not concerned with place, but with whom and for whom?

How is it then, that such incredible commerce takes place within the Temple? How is it that Jesus can cast out those who 'bought and sold' in the Temple of His day, and yet today, Christianity buys the services of those who go to school to become full time 'preachers', while the full time preachers sell those services (actually, as Peter says, making merchandise of us)?

Books, tapes, messages, subscription services and much more, bought and sold in the temple of the living God.

Would to God a few genuine Old Testament style prophets would rise up today, and tell the church, just exactly how the church must appear in the very eyes of God Himself...
