(The Temple Encounter Series: Part II)
“Confrontation, Authority, and the Heart of God”
In Part II of our Temple Encounter Series, we step into the moment where Jesus’ authority is directly challenged. After cleansing the Temple, the religious leaders confront Him, the Pharisees and Herodians try to trap Him, and the Sadducees test Him with theological tricks. But in every encounter, Jesus stands unmatched—exposing pride, revealing truth, and proving once again that He is the King who cannot be trapped, tested, or overturned.
In this study, we unpack: “By What Authority?” Jesus exposes the motives of the chief priests, scribes, and elders. The Parable of the Wicked Vinedressers, A story revealing Israel’s long history of rejecting God’s messengers… and His Son. Two Traps, Two Tests, One King, Political traps, theological ambushes, and the unmatched wisdom of Christ. Men, this message will challenge you, confront you, and strengthen you. Jesus still examines His temple today, and He begins with the heart of every man willing to listen.
👉 Stay tuned for Part III, where we cover Mark 12:28–44 and Mark 13:1–2. Jesus’ final teachings in the Temple and the prophecy that changed history. Iron sharpens iron. Let’s grow together.

II. The Parable of the Wicked Vinedressers
III. Two Traps, Two tests, One King
Matthew 8:23-27
"Now when He got into a boat, His disciples followed Him. And suddenly a great tempest arose on the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves. But He was asleep. Then His disciples came to Him and awoke Him, saying, “Lord, save us! We are perishing!” But He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. So the men marveled, saying, “Who can this be, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”

Man Overboard
Identifying the Jonahs in Your Life
Jonah 1:14-15 (NKJV)
"Therefore they cried out to the Lord and said, 'We pray, O Lord, please do not let us perish for this man’s life, and do not charge us with innocent blood; for You, O Lord, have done as it pleased You.' So they picked up Jonah and threw him into the sea, and the sea ceased from its raging."
Reflection
Does this sound familiar to you? Have you ever had to figuratively throw someone overboard, remove them from your life, because they were running away from God? The decisions they were making were affecting your life and bringing you down in a sinking ship.
