Jesus was a pacifist and sacrificial lamb, but He used violence one time in the bible against the money changers. He did this because the money changers profited and got rich in his temple. Who were these people and how can we identify them today so that we may not be a victim.
One way to ID them today is by this. https://www.nles.com/Eternal-Revenu...MIqLC_ydH24AIVCl6GCh25gA8jEAYYASABEgIJg_D_BwE
They were temple workers who sold the special coins the worshipers had to use to pray and make sacrifices. The preists had made a rule that said no coins except the temples' special made coins could be used for prayer, and the lenders has been selling the coins for more than they were worth in order to make a profit. They gave the preists a share of the profits for letting them do this. The preists claimed this rule was to keep foreign coins out of the temple, because they had images of false gods on them, but in reality they often forced locals to cash in Israelite coins as well. He didn't actually beat them up, he flipped over their tables and kicked them put of the temple.
No He wasn't, several times He commended the faith of Roman centurions, and never told them to get another occupation. No, they were cheating the people and taking space in the Court of the Gentiles, which was meant as a place of prayer for gentiles. Jesus was a small businessman in His early life, and I assume profited in His carpentry business.
Christian capitalists appear to profit modestly and ethically, an honest days pay for an honest days work as Jesus did. why do other capitalists such as the money changers and mohammed profit obscenely
