Rejection and Rescue

This week's sermon focused on the contrast between idols that cannot save and the true salvation found in Jesus, especially as we reflect on Palm Sunday. Reject False Hope – We are reminded by God’s grace not to trust in idols or temporary things. Instead, we’re called to enjoy good things—like cultural customs—in ways that draw us closer to Him. Choosing to follow God early in life is a wise foundation. Rescued Because Jesus Was Rejected – Paul’s experiences in Acts 22 mirror and contrast Jesus’ Passion Week: Paul was saved from the mob and flogging; Jesus was handed over and beaten so we might gain heavenly citizenship. Paul’s Roman citizenship protected him; Jesus gave up His rights for our salvation. Ultimately, Paul was rescued—but Jesus wasn’t, so that we, the spiritually rejected, could be rescued through His sacrifice.
