Daring Faith - Part 3 (John 12:12-18)

Daring Faith - Part 3
(John 12:12-16)

12 The next day the great crowd that had come for the festival heard that Jesus was on his way to Jerusalem.

- curiosity (God is always at work)

13 They took palm branches and went out to meet him, shouting,
“Hosanna!”
“Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”
“Blessed is the king of Israel!”

- from sacramentalism to the sacred One

14 Jesus found a young donkey and sat on it, as it is written:

15 “Do not be afraid, Daughter Zion;
    see, your king is coming,
    seated on a donkey’s colt.”

16 At first his disciples did not understand all this. Only after Jesus was glorified did they realize that these things had been written about him and that these things had been done to him.
