This sermon was delivered by Pastor Akers at Lutheran Church of the Resurrection on April 13, 2025.
The Cross and Passion of Our Lord Are the Hour of His Glory. “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!” (Luke 19:29–40). To fulfill Scripture, our Lord rides into Jerusalem on a humble donkey so that He might die upon the cross (Zechariah). His kingly crown will not be made of gold but of thorns, the sign of sin’s curse. For His royal reign is displayed in bearing this curse for His people, saving us from our enemies by sacrificing His own life. The sinless One dies in the place of the sinner so that the sinner can be freed and bear the name “Barabbas,” which means “son of the Father” (Matthew 26 & 27). It is at the name of this exalted Savior, Jesus, that we bow in humble faith. With the centurion who declared, “Truly this was the Son of God!” (Matthew 27:54), we are also given to confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father (Philippians 2:11).
