Ignorance of Holy Scripture the Source of Error in Religion
Matthew 22:23-33
The same day came to him the Sadducees, which say that there is no resurrection, and asked him,…


I. To ESTABLISH THE FACT THAT IGNORANCE OF HOLY SCRIPTURE IS THE SOURCE OF ERROR IN RELIGION. Holy Scripture is the truth from which error is the deviation. The Sadducees erred because they knew them not: they denied the resurrection of the dead. They substituted tradition for them: hence their error.

II. THAT MISREPRESENTATION OF SCRIPTURE LEADS TO SINFUL CONSEQUENCES. "Destroy the temple, and in three days I will raise it up." Upon this false witnesses accused Christ. See how the misinterpretation of Christ's words led to sin. Education that falls short of "knowing the Scriptures" will end in error.

(C. Cator, M. A.)
