Mark 11:1-22

Proposition: The Triumphal entry of Jesus reveals to us much more than the public acclaim of Christ’s royal status; it demonstrates for us that faith in God must bear fruit or it is not faith at all.

Key Words and Terms Hosanna: Mark 11:9 & Mark 11:10. The word “hosanna” is the Greek translation of a Hebrew im-perative which literally means, “save now.” This cry for salvation, or deliverance, leaves no mistake that the people greeting Jesus in Jerusalem believed they were see-ing the beginning of a new kingdom and the crowning of a new king.
