Scripture

Luke 20

27 Then Jesus was approached by some Sadducees—religious leaders who say there is no resurrection from the dead. 28 They posed this question: “Teacher, Moses gave us a law that if a man dies, leaving a wife but no children, his brother should marry the widow and have a child who will carry on the brother’s name. 29 Well, suppose there were seven brothers. The oldest one married and then died without children. 30 So the second brother married the widow, but he also died. 31 Then the third brother married her. This continued with all seven of them, who died without children. 32 Finally, the woman also died. 33 So tell us, whose wife will she be in the resurrection? For all seven were married to her!”

34 Jesus replied, “Marriage is for people here on earth. 35 But in the age to come, those worthy of being raised from the dead will neither marry nor be given in marriage. 36 And they will never die again. In this respect they will be like angels. They are children of God and children of the resurrection.
37 “But now, as to whether the dead will be raised—even Moses proved this when he wrote about the burning bush. Long after Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob had died, he referred to the Lord as ‘the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’ 38 So he is the God of the living, not the dead, for they are all alive to him.”

Observation

The Pharisees and Religious leaders were always trying to trick and trap Jesus into saying something wrong so they could kill Him. Jesus was way too smart for them to be able to trick Him. People today still try to use “Got Ya Questions” on us Christ – Followers to ridicule us about our Faith in the Living God!

Application

I will stand on the Word of God and use it to answer anyone that doubts that there is a Living God.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, I praise you this morning for loving me. I know that you love me. I know that you care for me. And I know that you will carry me and that you will save me. Isaiah 46:3-4 is my promise of your love, “… I created you and have cared for you since before you were born. I will be your God throughout your lifetime—until your hair is white with age. I made you, and I will care for you. I will carry you along and save you.”
