    Jesus "triumphal entry" according to the Zechariah 9:9 prophecy was for the purpose of personally demonstrating the apostasy of Israel, culminating in the pronouncing of judgment on Israel in the "woes" and lament of Matt. 23. In Matt. chapter 21, His bas

    Palm Sunday Sermon dealing with worship which challenges the worshipper to take their worship to the next level, to make it more than an event, to in fact make a lifestyle.

When he asked his father for permission to go, his dad said he could providing his chores were done early. Saturday morning ...read more

    Which Jesus do you want to meet – gentle and riding on a donkey, or carrying a sword and riding on a white horse?

    We’ve come to a crucial crossroads in our journey through the book of Matthew. Everything that Jesus has taught and done has been leading to this point. You could say that the events we read about today are the beginning of the end that leads to the beginning. In cosmic terms – the Lamb of God, ...read more

     | 29,447 views

    What happens when Jesus inspects your life? He cursed the fig tree because it didn’t bear fruit - why? And how do we bear fruit for our Savior?

    I have three fruit trees in my backyard. I would not call it an orchard – just three trees – a plum, a pear, and an apple. It’s not an orchard, nor am I an orchardist – or whatever you are when you have an orchard. I think my trees know it too – they get together every winter and say "how are we ...read more

    Sunday Is Here, But Monday Is Coming

    based on 85 ratings
     | 14,208 views

    At the end of each day of the Holy Week, Jesus withdrew from the city and then returned in the morning with a fresh symbol of who He was. On Monday He used a fig tree to teach a powerful lesson about spiritual fruit.

    While in Israel last month (March 2001) I once again had the privilege of walking down the Mount of Olives in a manner similar to that which Jesus did so many years ago on Palm Sunday. I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of that view of city. It is, without a doubt, the best approach to the Holy ...read more

    This sermon raises the question about what the Pharisees were doing when jesus passed by? And then consequently asks, what were we doing when Jesus came near to us!

    I. (1) An old Jewish story tells of the reaction of a learned rabbi to the excited announcement by a member of his congregation: "The Messiah has come! He is in our city now!" "Really?," mused the rabbi. Going to the window, the rabbi looked out on the city and observed: "I see no difference!" You ...read more

    The first thing Jesus did after His triumphal entry into Jerusalem was to clean house. He cleanses the Temple of it’s sinfulness. What can this teach us about the need for purity and holiness in our churches and our personal lives?

    OPEN: About 50 years ago there was a great preacher in the Washington D.C. area named Peter Marshall. I once read one of his sermons and found the following description of the scene we just read about in Matthew: “It is early morning, but already the temple court is a bedlam of activity and noise. ...read more
