Matilda and Sonia lead both Morning and Evening Prayer this week. Today’s Morning Prayer is led by Sonia who considers a passage from Luke’s gospel, chapter 20, verses 27 to 40. This describes a group of Sadducees – who did not believe in resurrection but accepted written law alone, as they questioned Jesus carefully about a wife who survived seven husbands, and who’s wife she would be if resurrected. Jesus answered; …”they cannot die any more, because they are like angels and are children of God, being children of the resurrection… Now he is God not of the dead, but of the living; for to him all of them are alive.” Sonia asks us to consider the word of God from this passage.
