And those who went before and those who followed were shouting, "Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord! Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David! Hosanna in the highest!" ~ Mark 11:9-10
And Jesus uttered a loud cry and breathed his last. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two, from top to bottom. And when the centurion, who stood facing him, saw that in this way he breathed his last, he said, "Truly this man was the Son of God!" ~ Mark 15:37-39
If you would have been in Jerusalem during the last week of Jesus's life before going to the cross, how would you have answered the question, "Who is Jesus Christ?"
The son of Mary?
The carpenter's son?
A marvelous teacher?
A modest rabbi?
A rebel stirring up political dissent?
The promised king who will overthrow the Roman oppressors and bring the Jews into power?
The Son of David?
The Son of God?
There were (and still are) many divided opinions of just exactly whom Jesus was. But there is no denying the fact that His life and His death changed the world. And as we shall see next week, His resurrection changes lives forever, literally.
Who do you say that Jesus is?
Changed by Jesus Christ forever and praying the same for you. ~ Pastor Sean and Tess
