Jesus Cleanses the Temple …14In the temple courts He found men selling cattle, sheep, and doves, and money changers seated at their tables. 15So He made a whip out of cords and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle. He poured out the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables. 16To those selling doves He said, “Get these out of here! How dare you turn My Father’s house into a marketplace!”… http://biblehub.com/john/2-15.htm there's no difference between the money changers and the atm machines just because its more subtle. The money changers were there because the changed the roman coins and other currencies unacceptable for offerings to the ones that were. they obviously did it for profit with a convincing argument of 'CONVENIENCE'. The banks are clearly making their profit with every withdrawal for your 'convenience' in this instance to. Take it how you want, but churches in america and Nigeria are increasing this practice for the same 'convenience' that jesus got angry about. church is a place for prayer and worship NOT profit!!! |
