Father Matthew Wiering Podcast
Religion & Spirituality:Christianity
In today's Gospel Jesus turns over the tables of the money changers and drives out those who were selling livestock outside the Temple. He did this not because there was anything objectively evil going on but because he could sense that worldliness had invaded the sacred space of the Temple. When he sees disorder within God's house he has no time or tolerance for it but must drive it out. If this is true for the Temple in Jerusalem, which is merely a sign and foreshadowing of its fulfillment in the person of Jesus, how much more is this true when Jesus finds disorder within me, who St. Paul calls, "a Temple of the Holy Spirit." May we cooperate with this purifying work of Jesus and he sees and drives out evil within us!
