Redemption Revealed: The Redeemer is Coming


Sermon Text: Mark 11: 9 Those who went ahead and those who followed shouted, Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord


Sermon Title: Redemption Revealed: The Redeemer is Coming

Point 1: Reversed the order vs. 2, 7 saying to them, "Go to the village ahead of you, and just as you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, which no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here. When they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks over it, he sat on it. When Jesus rode the donkey into Jerusalem he reversed the order.
There is one more thing that you have to see in vs. 2. The donkey was borrowed and in vs. 3 Jesus returned it. It occurred to me Jesus was always borrowing and returning.

Point 2: Related to people. Vs. 8 Many people spread their cloaks on the road, while others spread branches they had cut in the fields. Clearly Jesus was a man of the people. People loved Jesus.

Romans 7: 14ff

Point 3: Ripped up religion vs. 15, 16 On reaching Jerusalem, Jesus entered the temple area and began driving out those who were buying and selling there. He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling doves, and would not allow anyone to carry merchandise through the temple courts.   Second to Sin what separates man from God is religion.

Remember what Jesus said Take my yoke and learn of me for my yoke is easy and burden is light.
