"Destroy this sanctuary, and in three days I will raise it up"
A Reading From The Holy Gospel According To John (2, 13-25)
As the Jewish Passover was near, Jesus went up to Jerusalem. In the Temple he found installed the merchants of oxen, sheep and doves, and the money changers. He made a whip with cords, and drove them all out of the temple, as well as the sheep and the oxen; he threw the moneychangers' money on the ground, knocked over their counters, and said to the dove-merchants, "Get that out of here." Stop making my Father's house a house of commerce. His disciples remembered that it is written: The love of your house will torment me. Jews called out to him, "What sign can you give us to do this? Jesus answered them, "Destroy this sanctuary, and in three days I will raise it up." The Jews replied, "It took forty-six years to build this sanctuary, and you, in three days you would raise it up!"
Also, when he awoke from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this; they believed the scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken.
While he was in Jerusalem for the Passover feast, many believed on his name, seeing the signs he was performing. Jesus did not trust them because he knew them all and did not need any testimony about man; he himself, in fact, knew what is in man.
I believe in God, /....
