Faces in the Crowd Mark 11:1-11 Pastor Brian Johnson

It seems like, when kids are around 3-5, they become very interested in the why’s of life. Why is the sky blue, why is my hair this color, why do the deer eat our garbage?

Matthew 9:35-10:4 And Jesus was going around all the towns and the villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and every sickness.

Two crowds met on Palm Sunday and the week following: the provincial followers of Jesus who shouted Hosanna, lined his way with their garments, and recognised him as king; and the sophisticated, religious leaders of Jerusalem, confident in their religious system and the righteousness they were sure it yielded, who recognised no authority above theirs. This encounter was destined to end in bloodshed, and Jesus did nothing to prevent that, rather he worked to provoke the self-righteous Jerusalem crowd. Which crowd do you run with? Whose authority do you recognise? Palm Sunday is a chance to figure that out.

John the Baptist’s disciples came to Jesus and asked him, "Why do your disciples not fast often like we do?" Jesus tells them, “How can the guests of bridegroom fast when He is with them?

Are you part of the crowd or do you have the courage to stand out and let the power of God transform you?

As Jesus concludes his famous teaching, the Sermon on the Mount, he chooses to finish with a clear call not just to hear, but to obey. The crowds are amazed that he teaches with such authority. We reflect together on how we should respond.

We are faced with the same question the crowd faced on Jesus' entry into Jerusalem: are we willing to accept him as the king he is, and not the king we want him to be?

When Jesus chose to ride the colt of a donkey into Jerusalem at the end of a long, dusty climb from Jericho, he was making a momentous choice. Why a donkey? Why a colt? Why did the crowd shout hosannas? Is this relevant to us? Listen and find out.
