Who Is This?

Speaker: Pastor Lowell Perkins
March 23, 2008
Easter Sunday Morning Service

Psalm 24:8 (NIV)
a prophetic psalm about the coming Messiah
WHO IS THIS King of glory?  The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle.

Isaiah 63:1 (NIV)
a prophecy about the coming Messiah
WHO IS THIS coming from Edom, from Bozrah, with his garments stained crimson? Who is this, robed in splendor, striding forward in the greatness of his strength? "It is I, speaking in righteousness, mighty to save."

Luke 7:49 (NIV)
at Simon the Pharisee's house
The other guests began to say among themselves, "WHO IS THIS who even forgives sins?"

Luke 8:25 (NIV)
at the calming of the stormy sea
"Where is your faith?" he asked his disciples. In fear and amazement they asked one another, "WHO IS THIS? He commands even the winds and the water, and they obey him."

John 5:12 (NIV)
a cripple healed at the Pool of Bethesda
So they asked him, "WHO IS THIS fellow who told you to pick it up and walk?"

Matthew 21:8-10 (NIV)
at the Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem
8  A very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from the trees and spread them on the road.
9  The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted, "Hosanna to the Son of David!"  "Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!" "Hosanna[c] in the highest!"
10  When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, "WHO IS THIS?"

John 12:34 (NIV)
in Jerusalem shortly before the crucifixion
The crowd spoke up, "We have heard from the Law that the Christ will remain forever, so how can you say, 'The Son of Man must be lifted up'? WHO IS THIS 'Son of Man'?"

The CURIOSITY of the CROWDS
"Who is this?" - MT. 21:10

  • a man of MANY MYSTERIOUS SAYINGS

  • a man who MINISTERED in the SUPERNATURAL

  • a man of MUCH SUFFERING and SORROW

 

The CONJECTURE of the CRITICS
"Some say..." - MT. 16:14

  • merely a LIAR or a LUNATIC?

  • merely a RELIGIOUS RADICAL?

  • merely a MISGUIDED MARTYR?

 

The CONCLUSION of the CHRISTIAN
