VERSE OF THE DAY:
But Jesus knew their hypocrisy. “Why are you trying to trap me?” he asked. “Bring me a denarius and let me look at it.”
- Mark 12:15
REFLECTION:
- They were not honest in their intentions.
- The question was designed for ill intent.
- Jesus’ answer was to reveal the truth.
- They cared about money and power.
- Jesus used their own question to point out their inadequacies.
- But it didn’t make them humble; it made them mad.
- Jesus can’t fail the test because HE is the standard.
JOURNAL POINTS:
- How have you tested Jesus in your life?
- What did it reveal about you?

The Gospel of Mark is considered by some to be the most important of the “synoptic” gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John), mainly because it was the earliest written. With brevity and urgency, John Mark describes the birth, life, work and teachings of Jesus Christ. Highlighted with action and vivid storytelling, this Gospel underscores the transformative power of faith and encourages us to remain steadfast in our commitment to Christ.
