Sunday, August 4th

  1. When religious leaders (Pharisees) and politicians (Herodians) 12:13 conspire, and feel threatened what is usually the outcome?
  2. Look at our money (a coin or a bill) what clues on it suggest under whose authority we buy and sell?
  3. What were the Sadducees really wanting to know with their hypothetical story they brought to Jesus?
  4. What do we learn from Jesus response in 24-27?
  5. Why does Jesus ask his question in v. 37?
  6. How does the leafy fig tree from 11:14 continue to illustrate temple ministry seen here again in 12:38-40?
  7. How does the widow illustrate what is required to follow Jesus?  What is significant about her having two coins?
