Many have said they don't like going to church because all the church wants is their money. While it's sadly true that some churches take advantage of people, God doesn't want your money, God wants your heart. Where your heart goes, there your money and your time and your devotion will follow. This is true in life, let alone the church. The religious leaders were definitely taking advantage of the people by making them for certain rituals or regulations that benefit them personally. Jesus did not take kindly to this abuse, something Pastor Mark will elaborate on as our study on "Jerusalem, Jesus and the Temple of Doom" continues today when we Come To The Table!
