SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY MARK 12:18-2718

18 Then some Sadducees came to Jesus and asked him a question. (Sadducees believed that people would not rise from the dead.)

19 They said, "Teacher, Moses wrote that if a man's brother dies, leaving a wife but no children, then that man must marry the widow and have children for his brother.

20 Once there were seven brother. The first brother married and died, leaving no children.

21 So the second brother married the widow, but he also died and had no children. The same thing happened with the third brother.

22 All seven brothers married her and died, and none of the brother had any children. Finally the woman died too.

23 Since all seven brothers had married her, when people rise from the dead, whose wife will she be?"

24 Jesus answered, "Why don't you understand? Don't you know what the Scriptures say, and don't you know about the power of God?

25 When people rise from the dead, they will not marry, nor will they be given to someone to marry. They will be like the angels in heaven.

26 Surely you have read what God said about people rising from the dead. In the book in which Moses wrote about the burning bush, it says that God told Moses, I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

27 God is the God of the living, not the dead. You Sadducees are wrong!"

I WISH YOU A DAY FILLED WITH LOVE, LAUGHTER, FORGIVENESS AND THANKSGIVING-JASPER
