(Matthew 21: 1-9)



when they drew nigh unto Jerusalem, and were come to Bethphage, unto the mount of Olives, then sent Jesus two disciples,  Saying unto them, Go into the village over against you, and straightway ye shall find an ass tied, and a colt with her: loose them, and bring them unto me.  And if any man say ought unto you, ye shall say, The Lord hath need of them; and straightway he will send them.  All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,  Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.  And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,  And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon. And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.  And the multitudes that went before, and that followed, cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.(Matthew 21: 1-9)

 

The word Hosanna is a Hebrew word for “save me,” and expresses joy and victory. In the Old Testament, the Israelites cried out and praised God, who gave victory, "Jehovah, Hosanna" (Psalm 118: 25), "Blessed be the Lord, who comes in the name of the Lord" (Psalm 118: 26). These verses were celebrated on the feasts of Passover, Pentecost, and Feast of Tabernacles, and they waved with palm branches. When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the people repeated Jesus' psalm verse (118: 25-26), laying branches on the road and welcoming Jesus.

Jesus' name on earth is Jehovah God in the kingdom of God. Those who are in Christ can call Jehovah God the Father. No one can be called Heavenly Father. Only those who repent and are born again of water and holy spirit can call on the name of Jesus. Calling on Jesus' name is the same as calling on Heavenly Father.

Romans 10:13 『For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. 』Here," call "is the Greek word for" Epicaleomai. " Ananias said in Acts 22:16 when the Apostle Paul was baptized.“Now why are you hesitating? Get up and call on the name of the Lord to be baptized and wash away your sins.” And Romans 10: 9-10

『That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.  For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 』 Anyone who goes to church knows this.

In 2 Timothy 2:19『Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity. 』 Here the Lord's name is the name of Christ. Here, the word “call” is the Greek word for “Onoma,” which means “Jesus”. The word “Epicaleomai” means “Jesus” as the surname of Jesus. It means that the son call the father. However, most church people call him a father without being a son.

Many church people today call Jesus the Lord, even though they are not a family of Jesus. They believe they were born again without being born again. If you don't repent and live a life of denying yourself, you are not born again. Saying "I believe" is not saved, but born again. If you are not born again, on the last day, Jesus is saying, "I don't know you." The key to born again is that the od man dies. Then you will be washed.

In Romans 6: 7, 『For he that is dead is freed from sin. So, there is a close relationship between gaining righteousness through faith and being born again with water and the Holy Spirit. Old man die in the wilderness.

 Likewise, we must die on the cross with Jesus. Only by being united with the dead Jesus, you can be saved from God. To unite with the dead Jesus is to eat the bread (Jesus' body) before drinking the cup in the sacrament. It becomes one with the dead lamb. Tell them not to eat raw, not to boil and to eat, to roast. It was said to burn the remainder.

Today, we must escape from the false gospel like the indulgences. And you have to tell. It must be given in the words of Deuteronomy 30 and Romans 6, 10. If you cannot escape the false gospel, Jesus will say, "I don't know you, who are you?" These are those who admit by mouth but deny by action.

In Matthew 7, 『Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 』. Jesus would say "And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity".

Matthew 2:7-11

(Matthew 2:7-11) Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared. And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also. When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.   When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy. And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense, and myrrh. In ancient times, gold, frankincense, and myrrh were mainly offerings to kings or gods. Biblical scholars say, "In 243 BC, the offerings of Seleucus II Callinicus dedicated to the Temple of Apollo in Miletus included gold, fra...

Matthew 2:1-6

  (Matthew 2:1-6) Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,   Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him. When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born. And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet, And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel. (Matthew 2:1-6) Jesus came down to the earth according to the prophecy of the Old Testament 『 But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler ...

Matthew 2:12-15

(Matthew 2:12-15) And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.   And when they were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him. When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:   And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son. "It might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son." The prophet quoted by Matthew is Hosea. In Hosea 11:1 My son means a young Israeli community. It is to tell how God called the Israelites from Egypt in the past to "Israel apostate through Baal." “ Called ou...
