A Clash of Worlds—by Rodwell Mugochi
September 5, 2022
Sermon summary:
Matthew 21:1–9 Pontius Pilate marched into Jerusalem as a show of force on a white stallion, with power and intimidation from the western side. From the east came Jesus and his followers. He rode on a donkey–bringing peace, order, shalom. Zechariah 9:9b–10a
Mark 11:1–10; Luke 19:28–38; John 12:12–15
The crowd spread their cloaks, receiving Jesus as a king, but they didn't get what it was all about.
Which kingdom do we really want—Pilate's or Jesus? Are you willing to pay the price?

Read Scripture through context, culture, and Christ. Its purpose is to shape us into Jesus’ likeness through love, obedience, and faithfulness.
Jesus built his life on Scripture through prayer, learning and obedience, showing us how to know God deeply and walk daily in his purpose by staying rooted daily.
Saying “no” to sin is saying “yes” to freedom. Through grace, discipline, and daily surrender, we follow Jesus—not perfectly, but faithfully.
