Questions Shutdown

And no one was able to answer Him a word, nor from that day on did anyone dare question Him anymore. Matthew 22:46

Chapter 22 of Matthew has a series of questions posed to our Lord Jesus, until this verse at the end where the questioners were shut down. Do you mean they had Jesus right there and sought no more answers? Was there to be no more asking, seeking, and knocking? Of course from the Word we know that by Pharisee, Sadducee, scribe, and Herodian, they came to test our Lord and were sent away answered. These were not seeking but thought they knew the answer already and wanted to disprove the Lord's ministry and His claim. Instead one and all received such astonishing answers that they were shut down for good. The invitation for those who are seeking the Lord remains open. Ask Him what you do not understand, seek Him for what you do not know, kn0ck on the door of His tomb...and see that no one is there! 

We have a living Savior, and He is the answer to our questions!
