This sermon for Palm Sunday emphasizes the chaos and turmoil in Jerusalem as Jesus enters on a donkey, fulfilling the prophecy from Zechariah. This moment highlights the conflicting expectations of the people, who hoped for a Messiah to liberate them from Roman oppression, yet Jesus had a much broader mission of salvation that transcended their immediate desires. This message encourages us to recognize our limited vision of salvation and to trust in God's greater plan, as Jesus ultimately comes to conquer sin and death, not just our earthly struggles.
