Hosanna - Save Us Now
While the crowd didn’t understand it, make no mistake about it God’s salvation came riding on a Donkey!
Over the Mt of Olives the savior went.
Where was he going?
He was heading to the cross.
“Before we can begin to see the cross as something done for us, we have to see it as something done by us.”

b.
The Cross is God’s means of condemning sin.
The cross of Jesus Christ is all about God’s holiness.
That may seem strange, that a place of blood and suffering and torment would be all about holiness.
But the cross answers this question: How can a holy God be reconciled to unholy people?
That question demands this one: How can the relationship between a holy God and an unholy people be restored without some gross act of injustice?
At the cross we see just how much God values his holiness.
We see that God will not violate his own holiness even in order to save the ones he loves.
Here at the cross we see wrath and mercy meet.
We see both of them in their glorious fullness–the ultimate display of God’s wrath and the ultimate display of God’s mercy.
