As I have a listened to this today, nine years after the day you preached it, it is more necessary now than ever, to understand the importance of the kingdom of Christ. We as Americans, have so cherished, our freedom, and taken it for granted, it would always be so. We need to put our trust, and our concern, in the kingdom of our Lord Jesus Christ which, is eternal. It’s a difficult lesson for me, but, I must relinquish this desire, to the importance of Christ’s kingdom!
Alistair, I have always thought it was two different persuasions of people, one to shout Hosanna, and others who followed the Pharisee's judgments of who Christ was in the Pharisee's eyes. Always it was expected that Jesus would overthrow the Roman rule. Why , why did they not listen to Him all through His teaching? He never said He was going to do that!
