    In order to live as citizens of heaven on this earth, we must give back to the government the things that belong to it (i.e., taxes), and give ourselves wholeheartedly to the Lord, knowing Him and loving Him with the totality of our being.

    In the summer of 2004, Warren Beamer, a missionary from San Antonio, Texas, visited an orphanage in Nigeria. Beamer was startled when one of the children at the orphanage spoke to him with a southern accent. The girl quickly shared that she was from Houston, Texas. To convince the missionary ...read more

    At times it is difficult to see the forest because we are concentrating on individual trees. Without noticing, we get sidetracked and focus in on concerns that don't really count. At times we major on minor issues.

    Majoring in The Minors Mark 12:18-27 18. Some Sadducees (who say that there is no resurrection) came to Jesus, and began questioning Him, saying, 19. “Teacher, Moses wrote for us that IF A MAN’S BROTHER DIES and leaves behind a wife AND LEAVES NO CHILD, HIS BROTHER SHOULD MARRY THE ...read more

    Let’s live like we’re dying…because we are. But let’s also live like we’re going to live forever…because we will…either in heaven or in hell.

    Living in Light of Eternity Mark 12:18-27 October 7-8, 2017 Rev. Brian Bill As we consider the massacre that took place in Las Vegas this past week, many emotions rise to the surface and numerous questions remain unanswered.

    Jesus had to answer some very complicated questions designed to trap Him. But being the master chess player, Jesus turned the traps into times of teaching and revealing much about His true identity.

    Jesus is in the middle of debating the religious leaders who have come to challenge Him after He cleared the Temple. Last time they demanded that He prove His authority (He wouldn’t because they wouldn’t admit where John the Baptist got his authority) and then they tried to trap Him ...read more

    The Sadducees were Bible Scholars but they refused to believe in the resurrection; can we have the same attitude about Scriptures?

    Before reading our passage this morning, open your Bibles for a moment to 1 Corinthians 15:1-8….. Let us note that there is a gospel, meaning good news, which speaks of being saved from judgment to a place called hell, where all evil is forever kept separated from a holy glorious God! When a ...read more

    In Heaven, our relationship with the Living God will be so powerful our earthly relationships will seem to be insignificant in comparison.

    INTRODUCTION What will life be like in Heaven? There are about 4,000 different religions in the world, and most of them have a theory about the afterlife. Buddhists, Hindus, and other Gnostic religions see the body as evil and that after death, our pure spirits escape, often to be joined to ...read more

    In a society where half of marriages end in divorce, what do Jesus' words mean for us? And what's heaven going to look like when most have been married multiple times?

    A judge was interviewing a woman regarding her pending divorce, and asked, "Ma'am, what are the grounds for your divorce?" She replied, "About four acres with a nice house in the middle." "No," he said, "I mean what is the foundation of this case?" "Concrete, brick and mortar," she ...read more

    The ability to answer wisely may not persuade the hardened opponents of the Gospel, but God can use those answers to glorify himself and perhaps to reach out to others who hear the discussion.

    Death and Taxes (Mark 12:13-27) 1. I cannot say I enjoy making payments. Fortunately, I do not have a car payment, but I have a mortgage and I have bills. 2. Ministers are considered self-employed for purposes of social security, but employed by the church for purposes of income tax. 3. The ...read more

    Jesus teaches the resurrection of the dead.

    A QUESTION OF RESURRECTION. Mark 12:18-27. There have probably always been, and always will be, people whose so-called ‘faith’ is defined not so much by what they BELIEVE, as by what they DO NOT BELIEVE.

    Most preachers enjoy the preaching of God’s Word. Why shouldn’t they…they have one of the greatest and most rewarding jobs that a person could have.

    But every preacher has to deal with people who attend to hear him preach the sermon, but do not come to hear God’s Word preached! They come to find fault with what he preaches. For example, • One Bible preacher was preaching a sermon from the Word of God, and he stated that a lot of the ...read more

    Shortly after throwing the Pharisees and their cohorts for a loop over the issue of paying taxes to Caesar, the Lord Jesus confronted and rebuked the erroneous Scriptural teachings of the Sadducees, the skeptics of His day. The Scriptures are the best weapon in the arsenal of believers.

    There were two main bodies of religious teachers who operated during the time of Jesus until the fall of Jerusalem in A.D. 70. They each had their respective spheres of influence in Jewish society and beliefs. Scripture gives more attention to the Pharisees, and not in a good light as they ...read more
