Matthew 21:1 - 11
King Jesus

Luke 9:51

Flint - stone that breaks off with a sharp edge.
Jesus was going about His Ministry with a single-minded determination.
He had an unwavering committment.

Jesus riding on a donkey's colt - He was showing that He was coming as a king of peace.

The people putting their cloaks on the road
Like a red carpet
A way of paying honor to Jesus.
Psalm 118

Hosanna - calling for help and expressing happiness at the same time.
A way of acknowledging Jesus as Savior and asking Him to save.

1. The whole city was stirred.
2. This is Jesus - the one commissioned by God.

A sense of awe settling over the city like a fog in a valley. They understood that it was something that God was doing.

The crowd recognised the fullness of King Jesus 2000 years ago.
Do we do so today?

Trials and Persecution
1 Peter 1:1, 2

If you don't suffer grief, then you have died before those who love and care for you.

If you don't factor suffering into your world view you are ill prepared to live in this world.
Christians will suffer and your shouldn't be surprised when it happens. Any teachings to the contrary are false.

David was on the run from Saul in the Judean Wilderness, near the Dead Sea.

Search God's face.
