Luke 19:28-40
After He had said these things, He was going on ahead, going up to Jerusalem. When He approached Bethphage and Bethany, near the mount that is called Olivet, He sent two of the disciples, saying, “Go into the village ahead of you; there, as you enter, you will find a colt tied on which no one yet has ever sat; untie it and bring it here. If anyone asks you, ‘Why are you untying it?’ you shall say, ‘The Lord has need of it.’” So those who were sent went away and found it just as He had told them. As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, “Why are you untying the colt?” They said, “The Lord has need of it.” They brought it to Jesus, and they threw their coats on the colt and put Jesus on it. As He was going, they were spreading their coats on the road. As soon as He was approaching, near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole crowd of the disciples began to praise God joyfully with a loud voice for all the miracles which they had seen, shouting: “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord; Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!” Some of the Pharisees in the crowd said to Him, “Teacher, rebuke Your disciples.” But Jesus answered, “I tell you, if these become silent, the stones will cry out!”

1. The Triumphal Entry – “I am the King!”

“I tell you, if these (people) become silent, the stones will cry out!” v. 40

“My Beloved Son.”

“You are the Christ, Son of the Living God.”

“I am the Resurrection and the Life.”

Zechariah 9:9
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout in triumph, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your king is coming to you; He is just and endowed with salvation, humble and mounted on a donkey.

From this moment on, each person must decide how they will respond to Jesus.

2. The Olivet Discourse – “I am coming back.”

Luke 21:5-9

Kingdoms will clash. Nature will erupt. Disciples will be persecuted.

Be patient. Be watchful. Be faithful.

Luke 21:27
Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

3. The Last Supper – “I will take your place.”

Luke 22:19-20
“This is My body which is given for you…this cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in My blood.”

Hebrews 9:22
…all things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.

John 1:29
“Behold, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!”

Romans 5:6-8
For while we were still helpless, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly. For one will hardly die for a righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

I’m giving MY life for YOURS. – Jesus.

Luke 22:42
“Father, if You are willing, remove this cup from Me; yet not My will, but Yours be done.”

2 Corinthians 5:21
He made Him who knew no sin (to be) sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.

Jesus suffered, bore our sins, died, and overcame it all for you.

I am King. I’m coming back. I will take your place. I will overcome.
