Jesus sure knows how to ruin a grand entrance. People are ready to jump on the Jesus bandwagon but he has to go to the temple and stir things up. His approval rating slid continuously after that. But Jesus resented that worship was becoming a business instead of a personal expression of love for God. As recipients of God's grace we are caretakers of an incalculable treasure. He expects us to share these riches, not to try to gather them all up in one place. If we love our neighbor as our self, we will not see others as merchandise. We will do the most important work of the kingdom.
