When Jesus entered Jerusalem a few days before he would be crucified, the crowd laid down their cloaks and palm branches to welcome him and glorify him as their king. However, many of them mistakenly thought he would be their Earthly king. Pastor Schurman helps us learn, using that crowd as an example, the ways in which we can properly glorify Jesus.

We look at the account of King Uzziah’s sinful pride and death to learn that even when people have good intentions, if they act against God's instructions and the true teaching of the Bible, God will warn and discipline them.

When Jesus was teaching in the synagogue, the people there were amazed because he taught with authority. Unlike the so-called experts of the law, or false prophets that have come and gone, Jesus spoke the true Word of God, as only God could do. We see Jesus is the one true prophet of God and examine how he serves as a mediator for us.

When people see Jesus as just a child in the manger, or just a man dying on a cross, or just a wise man with teachings of kindness, they deny his deity. Other people deny him as their savior outright, including Christians whose beliefs fall into legalism or antinomianism.
