What mATTERS mOST
Mark 12:13-27
Main Idea: What matters most to us truly comes down to who and what we represent!
I. Who We Represent (12:13-17):
Render to Caesar what are Caesar’s and what are God’s to God” that is the image of Caesar, which is on the coin to Caesar, and the image of God, which is on man, to God - so as to render to Caesar indeed money, and to render to God even yourself.
~ Tertullian
“The coin has no knowledge of its bearing the image of the prince. But you are the coin of God and so far highly superior as possessing mind and even life, so as to know the one whole image you bear.”
- Augustine.
II. What We Represent (12:18-27)
Once you become aware that the main business that you are here for is to know God, most of life's problems fall into place of their own accord.
~ J.I. Packer
Reflect: Is what matters most to you Christ and his gospel? Why or why not?
