There were those in Paul’s day who “worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator” (Rom. 1:25). Such seems absurd to us that anyone would do that, but look around.

As one reads Mark 12, he will come across this series of paragraphs: “Then they sent to Him some of the Pharisees and the Herodians, to catch Him in His words” (12:13). “Then some Sadducees…came to Him; and they asked Him…” (12:18). “Then one of the scribes came, and…asked Him…” (12:28).
