JSL: The MISSION Of Jesus

Sunday, April 10, 2022 Sermon Notes: JSL: “The MISSION Of Jesus”   Matthew 21:1-11 NIV <p>1 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples, 2 saying to them, “Go to the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt by her. Untie them and bring them to me. 3 If anyone says anything to you, say that the Lord needs them, and he will send them right away.” 4 This took place to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet: 5 “Say to Daughter Zion, ‘See, your king comes to you, gentle and riding on a donkey, and on a colt, the foal of a donkey.’ ” 6 The disciples went and did as Jesus had instructed them. 7 They brought the donkey and the colt and placed their cloaks on them for Jesus to sit on. 8 A very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road. 9 The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted, “Hosanna to the Son of David!” “Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Hosanna in the highest heaven!” 10 When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, “Who is this?” 11 The crowds answered, “This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth in Galilee.”</p> <p> </p> Sermon Notes: JSL: “The MISSION Of Jesus” “Jesus is looking for his people, and we get to be part of the search party.” - From The Jesus-Shaped Life by Steve Cordle   “God loves them so deeply, and we’re the ones positioned to throw them the lifeline.” - From The Jesus-Shaped Life by Steve Cordle   QUESTION FOR THE WEEK: “How might Jesus be sending you out to join him in his mission to search for and seek out and save the lost and the least and the lonely?”     BLESSING May the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Love of God the Father, and the Fellowship of the Holy Spirit - go with you now and always.
