Sermon | Here as in Heaven (John 12:9-19)

Palm Sunday gives us a glimpse of heaven as we see the dead raised, with Lazarus standing as living testimony to Jesus’ power over death. The crowd clamors in praise, echoing the day when all people will worship Christ with joyful celebration. The King comes humbly into Jerusalem, pointing forward to the day when Jesus will return and reign in full glory. In this moment, everything begins to make sense as God’s redemptive plan unfolds before the people. As the world goes after Him, Palm Sunday foreshadows the day when every nation will be drawn to Christ and worship Him forever.
