A King? On A Donkey?

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Apr 2, 2020

Why does the story of Palm Sunday begin with Jesus on a donkey? Prophecy fulfilled. A living parable. Corrie Ten Boom said: Eveyone one singing. Waving palm branches... do you think for a moment the donkey thought it was for him? Let me be the donkey on which Jesus rides in His glory.

A Crown Of Righteousness

Contributed by Jeffrey Dillinger on Apr 3, 2020
