Palm Sunday | Trail Of Tears - Pastor Rusty Nelson
Manage episode 477098666 series 3036224
Jesus was brokenhearted over what sin had done to his creation and how Jerusalem would miss their chance for true peace.
• Palm Sunday represented Jesus coming as the king of peace, riding on a donkey instead of a conquering stallion
• The word "Hosanna" means both "save us" and celebrates that salvation has come
• Our tears matter deeply to God – Psalm 56:8 says He collects them in a bottle and records them in His book
• Jesus offers prayers with "loud cries and tears" (Hebrews 5:7) as our high priest who understands our weaknesses
• God wrapped himself in flesh so the unholy could touch the holy and be transformed
• When we see sin against the backdrop of God's holiness, we understand true repentance
• Godly sorrow leads to salvation while worldly sorrow leads to death
