Mark 12:28-44 Eternal City Church Sermons

    • Christianity

In these verses, Jesus encounters a scribe who has a very serious and pointed question for him. Interestingly, Jesus answers this scribe from Deuteronomy and in a way that affirms the scribe's nearness to the Kingdom of God. Jesus then begins to ask the questions; his wisdom, insight, and authority are on full display. He then warns the people of the scribes and puts on display their hypocrisy in a case study of a widow giving all she had to live on to the temple treasury.
