The Procession of the King

Luke 19:35-40 We are back in Luke 19 today, Luke 19, the coronation procession of Jesus Christ as his journey is coming to a close in Jerusalem. As we’ve seen in our studies so far, Jesus arrived with his disciples in Bethany on a Friday, on Friday, March 27th in AD 33. He and his disciples spent the evening there in Bethany the next day as well, the Sabbath. They were there with disciples in the region, friends like Lazarus,…

The King Prepares His Procession, Part 2

Luke 19:31-34 Well, we’re back in Luke 19 today, so you can turn there in your Bible. Last week, we introduced the triumphal entry, this section of the triumphal entry of Jesus Christ into Jerusalem, the Lord’s coronation procession into Jerusalem, and started to see his preparations that he’s making to enter the city as its king. So as you can see, this is the perfect Mother’s Day message. Chose this specifically for you moms.   I talked to quite…

The King Prepares His Procession, Part 1

Luke 19:28-30 We are steadily making our way through Luke’s Gospel and today we find ourselves in Luke 19, and you can turn in your bibles to Luke 19:28 as we enter into the final week of Jesus’, well we could say his pre resurrection life, his pre glorified life, his final week before the cross. So just one more week left in Luke’s Gospel, but it’ll take us a little longer than a week to go through it. That’s…

When the King Returns, Part 3

Luke 19:20-27 Well, you can turn in your Bibles to Luke 19 as we finish up the parable of the minas. Luke 19:11-27. It’s really been a joy of mine (I think for many of you as well) to see reflected in the parable the heart of our Lord for his servants, his har, the heart of our Lord for us. We see in the Lord, in this parable, we see his noble character, we see how wise he is,…

When the King Returns, Part 2

Luke 19:15-19 We’re back in Luke 19 this morning and so I would like to invite you to open your bibles to Luke 19 and the parable that we’ve been looking at that starts in verse 11 of Luke 19. This is part 2 of a 3-part look at this fascinating study of stewardship through the lens of the parable of the minas. Stewardship is a common, common theme in Jesus’ teaching. And in particular all through the travel section…

When the King Returns, Part 1

Luke 19:11-14 I’d like to invite you to turn your Bibles to Luke 19 this morning. This is a very important text of Scripture and a very pivotal time in our Lord’s ministry. And I’d like to add this could be a very pivotal time, pivotal portion of Scripture for our own church as well. We’re looking at Luke 19, verses 11 and following. And as I mentioned a few moments earlier, on our church’s calendar we have just come…

Jesus Came to Seek and Save the Lost

Luke 19:10  Well, as we come to God’s word this morning and consider the significance of the resurrection for us today, I want to direct your attention to a single verse in Luke’s Gospel, which is Luke 19:10. Luke 19:10. You can turn there in your Bibles. And Luke 19:10 says, “The Son of man came to seek and to save the lost.”If you’re visiting here to Grace Church, we’re so glad you’ve joined us on this Easter Sunday, this…

The Abiding Power of the Cross

Selected Scriptures Before we come to the Lord’s table tonight, I’d like to take a few minutes to reflect on the power of the cross that we have just sung about, the power of the cross that has saved us from eternal death and hell, separation from God, and think about the abiding power of the cross for us as believers. I realize that on a night like this, on a weekend like this, Good Friday and then Easter Sunday…
