Rejecting The King

 


Rejecting The King

We are in a brand new series at Crossroads entitled, "THE KING IS COMING."

Yesterday, We revealed three different types of people who rejected King Jesus with the reasons listed underneath each type. Let me introduce them to you, and then provide the link to the sermon that was preached.

I. The King was rejected by His heritage. John 1:1 "He came unto his own, and his own received him not." The Jews allowed their own point of view and lack of knowledge to bring them to rejecting King Jesus.

II. The King was rejected by Herod. You can read about this in Matthew 2. Herod allowed his power, position and pride to reject King Jesus.

III. The King was rejected by one hanging with HIM. You can read about this in Luke 23:32-43. The one hanging with Jesus rejected King Jesus by being so close yet so far away, by being persuaded by what's popular, and by misunderstanding true justice.

May we learn the importance of receiving KING JESUS and not rejecting HIM. Thank you for reading this blog and linking to the message listed.

Blessed Beyond Measure because of Christ,
Pastor Justyn Smith • CrossroadsPeoria.com

We are rejoicing over so many things to report...first, thank you for your faithful prayers, love and support. NOTES:  We ARE CURRENTLY in Alaska visiting family and ministering the Word of God through the first week of February.
