In this sermon, there is a conflict between Jesus and the religious leaders of His time. Pastor Roy Henry begins by highlighting the opposition Jesus faced from the Sadducees, scribes, and the Sanhedrin, who sought to challenge His message. As the tension rises, Jesus responds to their attempts to trap Him with a counterquestion, putting His opponents in a difficult position and exposing their lack of understanding. This moment underscores the importance of discernment in matters of faith. Jesus’ authority is revealed—not just in His teachings, but in His willingness to confront those who opposed him. Despite the hatred and rejection He faced, Jesus continued to proclaim the truth with unwavering boldness.
