Key Verse: Then Jesus Said to the Disciples, Key Verse: Then Jesus said to the disciples, "Have faith in God. v THE TRIUMPHAL ENTRY (1-11) As Jesus and his disciples approached Jerusalem, they came to the towns of Bethphage and Bethany on the Mount of Olives. Jesus sent two of them on ahead. 2 "Go into that village over there," he told them. "As soon as you enter it, you will see a young donkey tied there that no one has ever ridden. Untie it and bring it here. 3 If anyone asks, 'What are you doing?' just say, 'The Lord needs it and will return it soon.'" Ø Bethpage and Bethany and Mount of Olives • Small towns within 2 miles of the temple mount in Jerusalem. 4 The two disciples left and found the colt standing in the street, tied outside the front door. 5 As they were untying it, some bystanders demanded, "What are you doing, untying that colt?" 6 They said what Jesus had told them to say, and they were permitted to take it. Ø These two disciples had authority because they were sent by Jesus and did what Jesus told them to do. Ø To come riding a colt – as opposed to a mighty war-horse, was to come as a man of peace. Ø Jesus didn’t come to Jerusalem as a conquering general, but as a suffering (though triumphant) servant. 7 Then they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their garments over it, and he sat on it. 8 Many in the crowd spread their garments on the road ahead of him, and others spread leafy branches they had cut in the fields. 9 Jesus was in the center of the procession, and the people all around him were shouting, "Praise God! Blessings on the one who comes in the name of the LORD! 10 Blessings on the coming Kingdom of our ancestor David! Praise God in highest heaven!" Ø Daniel prophecies the coming of Messiah to the exact day. Daniel 9:20-27, Jeremiah 29:10-13 Ø The statements from the crowd came from Psalm 118:19-29. Ø Move from the crowd to being a disciple of Jesus. All about authority. Ø The people celebrated him ceremonially in old ways and new ways, but pushed against his authority. Ø The Authority of Jesus was not affected or influenced by this ceremony or the scene for Jesus. He had just as much authority as an obscure carpenter or traveler. v THINGS & PEOPLE CALLED TO BE WHO THEY WERE CREATED TO BE. (11-18) Ø Jesus calls out a fig tree and the temple system for false advertising. (11-18) • Fig tree was out of season for figs, but it showed leaves. Leaves only show when there is fruit. Leaves say, “there are figs here.” • It stated that it had fruit, but it did not. Outward form, but no fruit. • At the temple he drove out people buying and selling animals for sacrifices and knocked over tables of money changers and the chairs of those selling doves. (c.f. Malachi 3:1-3) • “Approved” sacrificial animals and inflated currency prices were used. • Every Jewish male was required to pay a yearly temple tax in the currency of the temple. The amount was nearly two days’ wages. Ø The fig tree and then the temple is a picture of religion without yielded authority to Jesus. Ø Both Advertised that it had the real stuff to transform and change the world, but manipulation and man’s twisted ways rule instead of the ways of Jesus. v AUTHORITY INTERACTS WITH THE HEART (19-25) Ø Fig tree was found to be withered from the roots up. (19-21) 22 Then Jesus said to the disciples, "Have faith in God. Ø Putting faith in God, puts you under his authority. • Mountains will obey you with God’s authority. (23) • Figure of speech for insurmountable problems. Removing difficulties. • Not faith in faith, but faith in God. Ø Unforgiveness pulls you out from under God’s authority. Ø To be authentic, to get rid of the show, the hype. v AUTHORITY IN THE MARKETPLACE (26-33) Ø Religious people play games with the authority of Jesus. Ø They are still under the assumption that they are in control or that there is a negotiation going on. Ø As a follower of Jesus - Wherever you set your foot, Jesus is there with authority (through relationship with Him) you have authority in that place to bring heaven down. To speak truth. To serve. To love. To create. To make things beautiful. To bring justice. To live justly. To set the captives free. To protect the poor or the oppressed. Ø Grow in authority. Walk in authority. v THINKING IT THROUGH Ø Read all of Mark 11. Ø What did God speak to you through the message today? Ø What has life been like when you live under the authority of Jesus? And without? Ø Where is God calling you to step into the authority he has given you in him? Ø Spend some time praying for the area of life (work, school, sports, leadership, church) that he has given you authority in him. .

  • End Time Chronology from Jesus in the Olivet Discourse (Matthew 24, Mark 13, Luke 21) Shawn Nelson
    November 5, 2017 End Time Chronology from Jesus in the Olivet Discourse (Matthew 24, Mark 13, Luke 21) Shawn Nelson (1) How does Matthew 24 fit into our on-going study? The view we’ve been teaching (Premillennialism) says there will be a literal world leader (antichrist) who is able to establish peace treaty in the Middle East between Israel and her neighbors for 7 years (Dan. 9:24-27). In the middle of the 7 years he walks into the temple in Jerusalem, takes away the sacrifices (Dan. 12:11), and declares himself to be God (Dan. 9:27; 11:31; Matt. 24:15; Mark 13:14; 2 Thess. 2:3-4). He forces everybody to worship him (2 Thess. 2:4; Rev. 13:15) and requires them to have a mark in order to buy or sell anything anywhere in the world (Rev. 13:16). Matthew 24 helps us see that Jesus’ taught the above scenario too. Jesus mentions all of the following: the existence of the nation of Israel, the temple in Jerusalem, the antichrist, tribulation, the second coming (and possibly rapture). The Temple to Be Destroyed 24 Then Jesus went out and departed from the temple, and His disciples came up to show Him the buildings of the temple. 2 And Jesus said to them, “Do you not see all these things? [the Jerusalem temple] Assuredly, I say to you, not one stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down.” The Disciples’ Two Questions 3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things be? [temple being destroyed] And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?” The Tribulation 4 And Jesus answered and said to them: “Take heed that no one deceives you.

  • Day 6 Wednesday March 8 Masada Ein-Gedi Mount of Olives Palm
    Day 6 Wednesday March 8 2023 Masada Ein-Gedi Mount of Olives Palm Sunday Walk Tomb of Prophets Garden of Gethsemane Masada Suggested Reading: The Dove Keepers by Alice Hoffman // Josephus, War of the Jews (book 7) Masada is located on a steep and isolated hill on the edge of the Judean desert mountains, on the shores of the Dead Sea. It was the last and most important fortress of the great Jewish rebellion against Rome (66-73 AD), and one of the most impressive archaeological sites in Israel. The last stand of the Jewish freedom fighters ended in tragic events in its last days, which were thoroughly detailed in the accords of the Roman historian of that period, Josephus Flavius. Masada became one of the Jewish people's greatest icons, and a symbol of humanity's struggle for freedom from oppression. Israeli soldiers take an oath here: "Masada shall not fall again." Masada is located on a diamond-shaped flat plateau (600M x 200M, 80 Dunam or 8 Hectares). The hill is surrounded by deep gorges, at a height of roughly 440M above the Dead sea level. During the Roman siege it was surrounded with a 4KM long siege wall (Dyke), with 8 army camps (A thru G) around the hill. Calendar Event 1000BC David hides in the desert fortresses (Masada?) 2nd C BC Hasmonean King (Alexander Jannaeus?) fortifies the hill 31 BC Major earthquake damages the Hasmonean fortifications 24BC Herod the great builds the winter palace and fort 4BC Herod dies; Romans station a garrison at Masada 66AD Head of Sicarii zealots, Judah Galilee, is murdered Eleazar Ben-Yair flees to Masada, establishes and commands a community of zealots 67AD Sicarii sack Ein Gedi on Passover eve, filling up their storerooms with the booty 66-73AD Great Revolt of the Jews against the Romans 70AD Jerusalem is destroyed by Romans; last zealots assemble in Masada (total 1,000), commanded by Eleazar Ben-Yair 73AD Roman 10th Legion under Flavius Silvia, lay a siege; build 8 camps, siege wall & ramp 73AD After several months the Romans penetrate the walls with tower and battering ram.

  • Sunday, March 20, 2016 - Palm Sunday
    Sunday, March 20, 2016 - Palm Sunday “Jesus Causes a Stir” - Matthew 21:1-11 The road from Jericho to Jerusalem was a treacherous one, through difficult passes, and climbing from near the Dead Sea at 1300 feet below sea level, to the peak of the Mount of Olives at 2700 feet above sea level (a climb of 4000 feet) in about 25 miles. To avoid Samaria Jews from the region of Galilee would travel south along the east bank of the Jordan River, about 65 miles, then cross the river at Jericho, and proceed west up to Jerusalem, the religious capital of Judaism. Large groups would make this journey together at the time of the Passover. It is possible that several hundred pilgrims were accompanying Jesus as He made His way to the feast. They saw His miracles and were amazed by Him. As the entourage passed through Bethany, the town of Mary, Martha and Lazarus, and approached Bethphage at the top of the Mount of Olives, Jesus pauses long enough to send two disciples on an errand - to go into the village and get a donkey's colt, in fulfillment of Zechariah 9:9. The people travelling with Jesus were religious enough to make the connection - Jesus is riding the donkey's young colt, so He must be the king! The crowd is frenzied as Jesus gets on the beast, and they throw their outer garments on the road before Him, with palm branches, and begin crying out the words of honor reserved for a king - "Hosanna, Son of David! Blessed is He who comes in the Name of the Lord! Hosanna in the heavens!" The crowd leads Jesus the mile or so of road down the Mount of Olives, past the Garden of Gethsemane, and across the bottom of the valley, up the winding road through the gate into the temple precinct.

  • Pathway of the Perfect Man a Collection of Articles
    J. FLANNIGAN PATHWAY OF THE PERFECT MAN A COLLECTION OF ARTICLES PUBLISHED BY TRUTH AND TIDINGS The Pathway of the Perfect Man (1): Bethlehem Flanigan, Jim There are six places in the Gospels whose names begin with “Beth.” They are: Bethlehem, Bethabara, Bethsaida, Bethesda, Bethphage, and Bethany. The prefix “Beth” means “The House of,” and these places seem to touchingly chart the Life and Ministry of the Lord Jesus, coming into our world as He did at Bethlehem and finally leaving it from Bethany on the Mount of Olives. Between Bethlehem and Bethany lies that lovely pathway of the perfect Man. It is always a joy to those who love Him to trace that pathway, contemplating the beauties of a life which brought so much pleasure to God. Bethlehem means “The House of Bread” and to that House of Bread He came, He Who was the Bread of God (John 6:33). Bethlehem marked the beginning on earth of a life which, as John tells us, was the manifestation of a life which had been eternally with the Father (1John 1:2). Our fellowship is now with the Father as we also feast on the Bread of God. What emotions are stirred in the hearts of believers at every mention of Bethlehem. I stood one day with an aged saint in the center of Bethlehem. At the realization of where he was, the dear man gripped my arm and as tears welled in his eyes and trickled down his cheeks all he could say was, “Is this Bethlehem? Is this Bethlehem?” What memories flood the hearts of those who love the Savior! A crowded inn; a manger; swaddling clothes; a quiet maid from Nazareth with her newborn Son; a few shepherds; a multitude of angels from the heavens announcing the birth.

  • Mount of Olives Is a Single Peak of a Two-Mile Long Ridge That Borders Eastern Jerusalem, Forming a Barrier Between the City and the Judaean Wilderness to the East
    ma'aleh hazzeithim; τὸ ὄρος τῶν ἐλαιῶν, to oros ,מַעֲלֵה הַזֵיתִים) Olives, Mount of tōn elaiōn). Mountain with olive groves east of ancient Jerusalem, adjacent to the Temple Mount. The site of significant biblical events, including the triumphal entry, arrest, and ascension of Christ. Physical Features The Mount of Olives is a single peak of a two-mile long ridge that borders eastern Jerusalem, forming a barrier between the city and the Judaean wilderness to the east. (Walker, In the Steps of Jesus, 116). Sometimes “Mount of Olives” refers to this entire range, including two other peaks. Most of the time, however, it refers to the highest center peak directly across from the eastern side of the Temple Mount (Finegan, The Archeology of the New Testament, 155). The mile-long Mount of Olives proper is approximately 2,700 feet above sea level; it stands about 300 feet over the city, past the edge of the Temple Mount where the terrain dips into the Kidron Valley. From this perspective, the Mount seems much higher than it actually is. From the top, there is an impressive panoramic view. The Dead Sea lies 15 miles to the east—beyond the Judaean desert with the mountains of Moab on the horizon (Finegan, The Archeology of the New Testament, 170). To the west lies the city of Jerusalem with the Temple Mount. The Mount’s height is relative to the vicinity, and its position around the city made it a natural bulwark—doubling as a watchtower against eastern invaders, and a token of protection (Psa 125:2) (Walker, In the Steps of Jesus, 116).
