The Jews then responded to him, “What sign can you show us to prove your authority to do all this?” John 2:18 NIV

Jesus, with His teachings and actions was certainly a threat to the Jewish leaders of His time. They believed that they had authority over how and where worship was to be done and business that could be conducted in surrounding areas. So, they challenged the One who threatened them by demanding a sign to approve the authority which He had. These leaders had molded worship into that which they wished and not what God had intended.

How much do we acknowledge Christ’s authority? What perceived authority do we believe to be held by those who have ministerial responsibility? Remember that in the end we answer to Christ and not to man. Whatever you do, make sure that you are serving God and that which He calls you to do.
