Cream of the crop? ARE YOU SERIOUS? Is there such a thing in God's kingdom? Did Paul and Peter run around saying, "we are the cream of the crop"?
Paul spoke of those of reputation...
Gal 2:2 And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.
Php 2:29 Receive him therefore in the Lord with all gladness; and hold such in reputation:
Reminds me of the scripture in Proverbs that speaks of having a good name.
Does the NT speak of showing special honour to some? Yes it does...
1Ti 5:17 Let the elders that rule well be counted worthy of double honour, especially they who labour in the word and doctrine.

It's the attitude that I took offence with. "My team is better than your team."

Was Jesus offended by those who sold in the temple?

I and we were not offended. We just marked those that caused division. And kept going forward. Have any of you been to WPF Lately?
Marked them with what?
