Luke 20:20-40
And they watched him, and sent forth spies, who feigned themselves to be righteous, that they might take hold of his speech, so as to deliver him up to the rule and to the authority of the governor.And they asked him, saying, Teacher, we know that thou sayest and teachest rightly, and acceptest not the person of any, but of a truth teachest the way of God:Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Cæsar, or not?But he perceived their craftiness, and said unto them,Show me a denarius. Whose image and superscription hath it? And they said, Cæsar’s.And he said unto them, Then render unto Cæsar the things that are Cæsar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s.And they were not able to take hold of the saying before the people: and they marvelled at his answer, and held their peace.And there came to him certain of the Sadducees, they that say that there is no resurrection;and they asked him, saying, Teacher, Moses wrote unto us, that if a man’s brother die, having a wife, and he be childless, his brother should take the wife, and raise up seed unto his brother.There were therefore seven brethren: and the first took a wife, and died childless;and the second:and the third took her; and likewise the seven also left no children, and died.Afterward the woman also died.In the resurrection therefore whose wife of them shall she be? for the seven had her to wife.And Jesus said unto them, The sons of this world marry, and are given in marriage:but they that are accounted worthy to attain to that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:for neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are sons of God, being sons of the resurrection.But that the dead are raised, even Moses showed, in the place concerning the Bush, when he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.Now he is not the God of the dead, but of the living: for all live unto him.And certain of the scribes answering said, Teacher, thou hast well said.For they durst not any more ask him any question.
-
Psalms 71:15-18
My mouth shall tell of thy righteousness, And of thy salvation all the day; For I know not the numbers thereof.I will come with the mighty acts of the Lord Jehovah: I will make mention of thy righteousness, even of thine only.O God, thou hast taught me from my youth; And hitherto have I declared thy wondrous works.Yea, even when I am old and grayheaded, O God, forsake me not, Until I have declared thy strength unto the next generation, Thy might to every one that is to come.
-
Malachi 3:16-18
Then they that feared Jehovah spake one with another; and Jehovah hearkened, and heard, and a book of remembrance was written before him, for them that feared Jehovah, and that thought upon his name.And they shall be mine, saith Jehovah of hosts, even mine own possession, in the day that I make; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.Then shall ye return and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.
