The King and His Kingdom - John 12:9-19, 6/5/16

Summary

The sermon explores the significance of Jesus as King and the nature of His Kingdom, focusing on the events of His triumphal entry into Jerusalem as recorded in all four Gospels. It emphasizes Jesus' humility, riding on a donkey rather than a war horse, symbolizing a peaceful kingdom rather than one of military conquest. The preacher highlights Old Testament prophecies fulfilled by Jesus, particularly from Psalms, Zechariah, and Isaiah, and underscores that Jesus' kingdom is not of this world but one of grace, salvation, and peace. The message calls believers to recognize Jesus' true kingship and the spiritual dominion He holds.
