TODAY'S BIBLE TWEET

BIBLE TEXT: “And they went into Capernaum; and straightway on the sabbath day he entered into the synagogue, and taught. And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes.” (Mark 1:21-22 KJV)

BIBLE TWEET: Unlike the unauthoritative scribes, Jesus taught as one having authority; that is, He taught that we should do what He says simply because He says so.

BIBLE TAKEAWAY: My Heavenly Father, like my late earthly father, always answers my question—“Why do I need to do what you say?”—with the same resounding response—“Because I said so!”
