The Sadducees' Mistake

In Mark 12:18-27, Jesus is responding to a question from the Sadducees and say, “You have made a serious error.” Jesus was plainly pointing out an error in their belief system, and because He is clearly the expert in this situation, it’s important that we pay attention. Jesus’s rebuke was clear, true and brutally honest. He said, “Your mistake is that you don’t know the scriptures, and you don’t know the power of God.” There are many people in the modern American church that fall into one of these ditches, so this week, we’re going to look at the mistakes that Jesus pointed out and make sure we stay far away from them.
