Entering into Jerusalem
Update: 2025-11-12
Description
This sermon focuses on the theological meaning of Christ's entrance into earthly Jerusalem as a prelude to our entrance into the heavenly Jerusalem, emphasizing the concept of "rest" throughout the Bible. The speaker meticulously outlines three types of rest: God's rest after creation on the Sabbath, the temporary rest achieved by Joshua entering the promised land (Canaan), and the ultimate, remaining rest that is the eternal rest for the people of God. Citing Hebrews 4:9, the speaker highlights the unique Greek term sabbatismos (Sabbath rest) used by Paul, arguing that this signifies the final, perfect rest of entering heaven. Ultimately, the sermon concludes that Christ’s entry into earthly Jerusalem was the crucial step, the ultimate price paid, to ensure believers could attain this eternal sabbatismos.
