A.W. Tozer once wrote, "What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us." That quote is worth sitting with for a moment. What do you really believe about God? And how has that understanding shaped the way you live each day? Are there distorted or warped views of God that may be keeping you from fully experiencing His love for you and the abundant life He so desires for you? In Mark 11 and 12, the religious authorities come to Jesus demanding, "By what authority are you doing these things?" Their question reveals something deeper about how they saw Jesus—and how easily our own view of God can become distorted from fear, shame, disappointment, or past experiences all shaping the way we see Him. When our view of God becomes warped, it can keep us from fully receiving the grace and love He so freely gives. Scripture gives us a clear picture of who God is. In Exodus 34, He reveals Himself as merciful, gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in steadfast love. If this is who He truly is, then the question isn't simply what we believe about Him, but whether He holds first place in our hearts and lives. As we journey through this passage of Scripture in Mark, our hope is that we wouldn't simply learn more about Jesus, but that we would see Him more clearly, know His heart more deeply, and grow in our trust of His love for us. As Pastor Don asks an important question "Is Jesus Supreme in Your life?" we need to ask ourselves, is His authority highest, or are we still trying to live life on our own terms—our way, our will, our agenda? — Mark 11:27-12:12 And they came again to Jerusalem. And as he was walking in the temple, the chief priests and the scribes and the elders came to him, and they said to him, "By what authority are you doing these things, or who gave you this authority to do them?" Jesus said to them, "I will ask you one question; answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things. Was the baptism of John from heaven or from man? Answer me."And they discussed it with one another, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say, 'Why then did you not believe him?' But shall we say, 'From man'?"—they were afraid of the people, for they all held that John really was a prophet. So they answered Jesus, "We do not know." And Jesus said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things. 12And he began to speak to them in parables. "A man planted a vineyard and put a fence around it and dug a pit for the winepress and built a tower, and leased it to tenants and went into another country. When the season came, he sent a servan to the tenants to get from them some of the fruit of the vineyard. And they took him and beat him and sent him away empty-handed. Again he sent to them another servant, and they struck him on the head and treated him shamefully. And he sent another, and him they killed. And so with many others: some they beat, and some they killed. He had still one other, a beloved son. Finally he sent him to them, saying, 'They will respect my son.' But those tenants said to one another, 'This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.'And they took him and killed him and threw him out of the vineyard. What will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy the tenants and give the vineyard to others. Have you not read this Scripture: "'The stone that the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; this was the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes'?" And they were seeking to arrest him but feared the people, for they perceived that he had told the parable against them. So they left him and went away.
