Jesus did not enter Jerusalem to seize a throne. He entered to cleanse His Father’s house.

In this expositional sermon through Matthew 21:12-17, we continue through Passion Week and witness Christ’s cleansing of the temple. Why did the King go first to the temple instead of the palace? What made His righteous anger different from sinful anger? Why did He drive out the merchants, welcome the broken, and receive the praise of children while the religious leaders hardened their hearts?

This message explores Christ’s authority over His worship, the danger of turning godliness into personal gain, and the continuing responsibility of the church, the home, and Christian leaders to guard what God has made holy. We also see how the temple pointed forward to Christ Himself, our Great High Priest, our perfect sacrifice, and the true cornerstone of God’s people.

Topics covered include:
• The cleansing of the temple
• The meaning of Passion Week
• Christ’s kingly authority
• The Regulative Principle of Worship
• Church leadership and biblical oversight
• Why Jesus welcomed the broken
• The faith and praise of children
• Christ as the true Temple
• The church as God’s spiritual house
• Practical applications for churches, families, and Christian living

Key Scriptures:
Matthew 21:12-17, Psalm 2, Isaiah 56:7, Jeremiah 7:11, John 2:14-15, Hebrews 10:19-21, 1 Peter 2:5, 1 Corinthians 3:16-17, Psalm 8:2, Matthew 18:3, 1 Timothy 6:3-5

If this sermon encourages you, consider subscribing for weekly expository preaching through the Gospel of Matthew, biblical theology, Reformed teaching, and practical Christian discipleship.

The Triumphal Entry | Matthew 21:1–11
Dr. Austin W. Tucker | Gracepointe Church

The King they welcome is the Lamb they need. And the salvation they cry for will cost Him His blood.

As Jerusalem prepares for Passover, Jesus enters the city willingly, knowing the cross awaits Him. In this sermon through Matthew 21:1–11, we connect the selection of the Passover lamb in Exodus 12 with the presentation of Christ, our Passover Lamb. The Lord who owns everything rides a borrowed c**t, clothed in humility and fulfilling the Father’s promised plan.

But don’t stop reading Zechariah at the donkey. The prophecy continues with a King who speaks peace to the nations and rules to the ends of the earth. We trace that promise through Christ’s death, resurrection, and present reign, considering what His authority means for the Great Commission and our confidence in the advance of His kingdom.

Along the way, we examine the donkey and her unridden c**t, the disciples’ simple obedience, and the meaning of “Hosanna.” The crowd cries for salvation, and Jesus continues toward the cross to purchase it.

When Jerusalem asks, “Who is this?” the question reaches us too. Religious upbringing and outward displays of honor cannot replace knowing Christ. He is the Prophet who speaks God’s Word, the King who reigns, and the Priest who offers Himself for His people.

As Jesus leaves Jericho and begins His final journey toward Jerusalem, two blind men sit by the roadside and cry out, “Lord, have mercy on us, Son of David!” The crowd tells them to be silent, but they cry out all the more. Jesus stops, calls them, opens their eyes, and they follow Him.

In this sermon from Matthew 20:29–34, we see men who were physically blind yet recognized something many in the crowd could not see: Jesus is the promised Son of David, the King.

Their cry teaches us something about prayer. They come with desire, humility, faith, and perseverance. They do not demand what they deserve. They plead for mercy. And Christ, full of compassion, stops for men the crowd was willing to pass by.

But the passage points us toward an even greater blindness. A man may possess perfect physical sight and remain completely blind to the glory of Christ. Like the church at Laodicea, we can believe that we see while Christ declares that we are blind.

The prayer of these men should become our prayer:

“Lord, open our eyes.”

Open our eyes to our sin.
Open our eyes to our pride.
Open our eyes to the people we walk past.
Open our eyes to the glory of Christ standing before us.

And when Christ opens our eyes, we do what these men did.

We follow the King.

Sexual autonomy is a cultural lie. Pastor Robbie's series on the Law and Gospel has been excellent.
