Quick question...

Christ called The Temple his "Father's house", but we put Christ's name on it. Who's house is it? Or is it both?

Whatever belongs to Christ also belongs to His Father.

True, but Christ always perferred that all glory be given to the Father...as any good son would.

It belongs to both. The glory isn't in the building; it is in the people who worship there. We worship both the Father and the Son.

Deep...lol. But the NT teaches Christ was not yet glorfied when he drove out the moneychangers.

Both...in an analogous sense that the temple of our own bodies are personally our's and God's. Our bodies are the dwelling place, and thus the "house," of our spirits and his.
