Grace Baptist Santa Clarita: Service Podcast

Our story today is the familiar entrance of Jesus into Jerusalem. And while the crowds cheered, it soon became evident that their perspective was not aligned with the reality of God’s plan for the Messiah to suffer and die. They wanted a champion, but God sent the true Passover Lamb who would give His life as a ransom for many. They wanted a leader, but God sent a Servant. They wanted release from bondage to Rome, yet God sent the One through whom He would offer release from bondage to sin and Satan. And yet in their confusion, they did provide an opportunity for Jesus to fulfill the Old Testament clues about the Messianic mission, and it is in these that we, looking now through the eyes of faith, come more fully to understand the wisdom and power of God.
