A Lamb Like No Other 

     The Bible refers to Jesus as the Lamb of God. Like a docile lamb, He allowed himself to be crucified to pay for my sins and yours. 

     Decades later, as John wrote in Revelation chapter 5, the disciple heard thousands of angels sing, "Worthy is the Lamb who was slain..."  

     Back to the first days. Jesus went up to Jerusalem. John 2:13. And he found in the temple those who sold oxen and sheep and doves and the moneychangers doing business. When he had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple...poured out the changers' money and overturned their tables. 

     Doesn't seem like a docile lamb. He was defending the purpose of my Father's house.  

     When the Jews asked him, "What sign do you show us to us, since you do these things?" He answered as He often did throughout his ministry. Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. Of course, they thought He meant the real temple, but He was speaking of the temple of his body. 

     During the Passover feast, many believed in his name when they saw the signs which He did. But Jesus did not commit Himself to them, because he knew all men. He knew what was in man. (John 2:24-25)
