Matthew 21:1-11
On His journey Jesus taught amazing things about the purpose for his trip to Jerusalem
Jesus’ Journey to Jerusalem was a journey of:
- Destiny: His destiny was the Cross
- Devotion: To follow Jesus will cost you your life
- Division: Some believed – others opposed
- Deliverance: The ultimate purpose was to deliver us from the kingdom of darkness
Fast Forward – Jesus’ arrival in Jerusalem caused quite a stir, His next arrival will do the same
There are certain very clear symptoms that should warn us that the Rapture is fast approaching:
- Don’t be alarmed
- Don’t be deceived
Signs of the time that shout – “you better get ready”
- A Departure from Truth
- Disobedience and Lawlessness
- Denial (3 Major concerns permeating the church)
– A. The Denial of Biblical Authority
– B. The Denial of the Deity of Christ
– C. The Denial of the Depravity of Man - A Growing Level of Deception
Our Responsibility:
“Keep the Main Thing the Main Thing”
- Guard the Deposit
- Avoid worthless chatter
