It Really Is About Resurrection | Matthew 22:23-33

It Really is About Resurrection!

Marriage is important on Earth, but in Heaven there is no marriage.  

All relationships will be perfect and God will provide the intimacy and closeness as our Heavenly Father.

Pharisees                          

Believed in the OT books.               
Believed in resurrection                  
Believed in angels                          
Heaven for God and His people      

Sadducees (not like Jesus – spoke heaven, judgment and hell)

Only first 5 books

No resurrection

No judgment or punishment

No heaven

Jesus quotes Exodus 3:6 (Jesus knows his audience).  Like John 3:16 to us today, Ex 3:6 to the 1st Century Jew.

God is not the God of the dead but the God of the living!
