But he answered them, "An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. (Matthew 12:39 ESV)
The Pharisees in Jesus days loved money. They expect a spectacular sign from Jesus to prove that He is the messiah before they were willing to give up their love of money. But Jesus refused to provide any sign except that of His resurrection.
Today, we have many Christians, who are lovers of money and they expect many signs from their pastors. Those pastors who cannot produce signs but preach the resurrection of Christ are despised.
The Pharisees, who were lovers of money, heard all these things, and they ridiculed him. (Luke 16:14 ESV)
