Taxes, Marriage, & the Authority of Jesus
May 18, 2025 • Nate Corley
There is one clear theme in our passage today: Jesus is Lord. Once again, he faces challenges (this time about taxes and marriage), and once again - Jesus emerges victorious. In the process, he addresses questions like "Do we have to pay taxes?", "Will there be sex in heaven?", "What's the point of marriage if it's going to end in eternity?" and more. Jesus then ends with one of the most thrilling declarations of Lordship in all of scripture, prompting all who listen to respond in submission and rest.
