When the Sadducees asked Jesus an asinine question, he responded,
You are mistaken, because you don’t know the Scriptures or the power of God. (Matthew 22:29)
Could Jesus say this of us?
How wrong is our worldview because we don’t really know the scriptures?
How often do we make foolish decisions because we really don’t know the scriptures?
And how often do we put God in a box, making him smaller than really is, because we don’t really know the scriptures?
May Jesus never say of us what he said of the Sadducees.
Instead, let us develop a love for God’s word, so that we may truly know him, and so that his way of thinking may shape ours.
