"Who Is This Man?"
In Pastor Pencil's sermon for Palm Sunday, he addresses the question, "Who is this man?" Referring to Jesus, the speaker emphasizes that this question has been asked for over two millennia and is still relevant today. He uses the biblical passage from John 12:12-19, which recounts Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem. The crowd hails Him as king while the Pharisees express their fears about losing their influence, showcasing the stark contrast between the people's cany belief and the leaders' skepticism. Pastor Pencil underscores that Jesus is not just a prophet or a teacher but is indeed Emmanuel, Messiah, and our eternal King.Throughout the sermon, Pastor Pencil elaborates on various aspects of Jesus' identity, from being a prophet and a teacher to the suffering servant and the risen Savior. He highlights significant moments in Jesus' life, including the miracles He performed and the prophecies that foretold His coming. The sermon culminates in a personal challenge for the congregation: to explore their own understanding of who Jesus is, urging them to move from head knowledge to heart knowledge and to recognize Him as their Savior. In closing, he invites those who wish to accept Jesus into their lives to pray, offering a pathway to deeper faith and understanding.
