What happens when those who deny foundational beliefs try to trap the very source of wisdom? In our latest episode of "Don't Fear What They Fear," Joy and Robbie explore the intense encounter between Jesus and the skeptical Sadducees in Matthew 22. Join us as we unravel Jesus' brilliant response to their tricky question about the resurrection, revealing their hypocrisy and showcasing His profound wisdom. This episode offers valuable lessons for anyone facing insincere or challenging questions, highlighting the importance of discernment and an open heart towards God's teachings.

We'll also dive deep into the theological differences between the Sadducees and Pharisees, particularly their conflicting views on the resurrection, angels, and spirits. By dissecting Jesus' use of the Pentateuch to counter the Sadducees' limited scriptural acceptance, we underscore the significance of embracing the whole Bible—Old and New Testaments alike. This discussion not only illuminates the Sadducees' incomplete understanding but also emphasizes the Old Testament's critical role in revealing God's heart, human sinfulness, and our dire need for a Savior.

Lastly, we reflect on the value of seeking wisdom from biblically-centered mentors. Joy shares personal stories about the guidance received from Pastor Grant and other spiritually grounded figures, encouraging our listeners to turn to those well-versed in scripture when faced with personal challenges. As we wrap up, we'll remind you to stay hydrated and be mindful of the warm weather, wishing you all a fantastic week ahead. Don't miss out on this enriching journey through Matthew 22, setting the stage for more intriguing discussions on the great commandments next week!
