Why They Turned on Jesus | Apostle’s Creed (Part 5)
About This Message
Speaker: David Reneau
Summary:
How can a crowd that celebrated Jesus’ arrival then, in less than a week, turn on Him and chant, “Crucify”? To answer that, we have to go back to the very beginning.
In part five of our series on the Apostle’s Creed, Pastor David Reneau answers the question, “Why did they turn on Jesus?” From the Garden of Eden to the court of Pontius Pilate, we look at the reality of sin, the necessity of a sacrifice, and the overwhelming mercy found at the cross. We often look for a savior who will solve our political or temporary problems, but Jesus came to solve a much deeper one. He didn't just come to free a city; He came to free you from death, hell, and the grave.
In this message, we discuss:
The disconnect between Palm Sunday and Good Friday.
Why free will is the foundation of our relationship with God.
Why sin tastes sweet but ultimately destroys
The difference between the King the Jews wanted and the Savior we needed.
How the sacrifice of Jesus offers us unconditional adoption into God's family.
