               GOSPEL REFLECTION
Gospel: Luke 20:27-38
“They can no longer die, for they are like angels; and they are
the children of God”

Gospel Teaching:
The Sadducees denied that there was a resurrection, so they try
to test Jesus on the law by using a question that applied the
Mosaic Law to the “life after death.” Jesus see their attempted
test. Jesus lets them know that the laws of the earthly world do
not apply to the heavenly world. He uses the quote above to
indicate that things are different there. Further, he uses a quote
from Moses to show that Moses was told
by God at the burning bush that he was
being sent by “God of Abraham, the God
of Isaac, and the God of Jacob,” and that
God “is not God of the dead, but of the
living, for to him all are alive."
