Read: Matthew 23; Luke 20-21
Marked: Luke 20:27-28, Then some of the Sadducees, who deny that there is a resurrection, came to [Him] and asked Him, saying: “Teacher, Moses wrote to us [that] if a man’s brother dies, having a wife, and he dies without children, his brother should take his wife and raise up offspring for his brother.”
Why did they deny the resurrection? Why do we deny what we deny? Is it because we’ve made up our minds before we look into the matter? Many deny a literal hell but have no problem believing in a literal heaven. But what does God say about these things in His Word?
The Bible is light illuminating our understanding. In it we find wisdom and truth. And if we are open to discovery and learning, regardless of what we think, we will see that our understanding quite often contradicts what the Word of God says.
When we see that our thinking contradicts the Bible we should change our thinking and not what the Bible says.
