The sermon "Hosanna To the Nazarene," preached by Eric Lutter, primarily addresses the significance of Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem, highlighting His identity as the prophesied Messiah. Lutter argues that the titles associated with Jesus, particularly "Son of David" and "Jesus of Nazareth," encapsulate His messianic role and underscored the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies, particularly from Zechariah 9:9. He elaborates that the crowd's cry of "Hosanna," meaning "Lord, save us," reflects the people’s understanding of their need for salvation, which Jesus fulfills as the Lamb of God, sent to bear the sins of His people. Ultimately, the practical significance of this message emphasizes the necessity of recognizing Jesus as the Savior, inviting believers to cry out to Him in faith for mercy and deliverance, affirming Reformed doctrines of grace and salvation through Christ alone.
“This is the one separated by our God unto this glorious salvation.”
“They were crying out, just like Bartimaeus was crying out to the Son of David, have mercy on me.”
“I want to be found in His robe of righteousness. That's what I want my hope of eternal life based on.”
“If the spirit of God gives you that prayer, you're gonna be praying, Lord, save me.”
