Jesus’s only issue with the people selling fish were that they were selling it in the temple of God

You're clearly behind on your mysticism. Jesus did not believe the temple was a physical place. Jesus believed every person could commune with God where previously to speak with god you had to do it in the holiest of holys which could only be found in the temple. Essentially saying that God resides in people and people are the temple and they only have to pray to be able to speak directly with God.

Or some shit like that.

Jesus died for our sins. Not for you to be lazy.

Jesus QUIT his job because he was leading by example!

Why else would God have a job but to demonstrate how frivolous it is!

[Matthew 19:24] says otherwise
