Mark 12:1 - 12:27

Gospel of MarkSteve Gregg
In this discourse, Steve Gregg examines the confrontations between Jesus and those who attempted to ensnare Him with their trickery. Jesus relates two parables that illustrate the rejection of God's messengers and the coming destruction of Jerusalem, and later addresses the question of whether Jews should pay taxes to Caesar. Jesus emphasizes the importance of giving back to both God and the state what is due to them. He also defends the doctrine of resurrection and highlights the significance of studying Scripture and recognizing the sovereignty of God.
