Jesus Went Into The Temple And Boldly Drove Out Those That Bought And Sold. And When All Was Cleared, There Was Nobody Left But Jesus. Observe This, For It Is The Same With Us: When He Is Alone He Is Able To Speak In The Temple Of The Soul. If Anyone Else Is Speaking In The Temple Of Your Soul, Jesus Will Keep Still, As If He Were Not At Home. And He Is Not At Home Wherever There Are Strange Guests-guests With Whom The Soul Holds Conversation, Guests Who Are Seeking To Bargain. If Jesus Is To Speak And Be Heard, The Soul Must Be Alone And Quiet.
