This nation was built by Protestant Christians – puritans and presbyterians who believed in the sovereignty of God. They believed that God was sovereign over the great movements of nations and civilizations because they believed He was exhaustively sovereign over every detail of the universe, preeminently the salvation of every man, woman, and child.

Cotton Mather, Jonathan Edwards, George Whitefield, and John Witherspoon all preached this sovereign grace rooted in the historical event of the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead.

The Text: “But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them” (Eph. 2:4-10).

This Palm Sunday message is really quite simple: the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem two thousand years ago that resulted in His crucifixion was the beginning of His enthronement and conquest of this world as it’s true King.

This is the pattern of Christ’s conquest: death and resurrection. This is so God will get all the glory.

The Text: “And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast: The same came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying, Sir, we would see Jesus… Now is the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. This he said, signifying what death he should die” (Jn. 12:20-33).

Lord’s Day worship is the foundation for faithful Christian life. Everything else flows from this: obedience, courage, and wisdom. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. Bowing down before your King is the beginning of true obedience. True courage is found in full submission to the Living God and learning to read the story He is telling.

And the beginning of the story of Gideon models this for us wonderfully.

The Text: “And it came to pass the same night, that the LORD said unto him, Take thy father’s young bullock, even the second bullock of seven years old, and throw down the altar of Baal that thy father hath, and cut down the grove that is by it…” (Judges 6:25-40)
