Jesus's kingdom is not of this world, but it is being established right now in you and me. If He is calling you to believe in Him, surrender to Him fully. On this Palm Sunday, Pastor Ben points us toward Jesus's attitude toward earthly authority in John 18:28-19:16 and shows us how that attitude reveals His heavenly kingship.

1. Jesus's humility reveals His kingship. (ch 18:28-32)
2. Jesus's meekness reveals His kingship. (ch 18:33-40)
3. Jesus's submission reveals His kingship. (ch 19:1-16)

This week, Pastor Ben teaches us how Jesus uses our own weaknesses to show us our need for a savior, as He did for Peter in John 18:12-27. Even in the midst of our failure, He still looks at us not with anger or disappointment, but with love.

1. Jesus accepted the cup of suffering while we avoid it. (v12-16)
2. Jesus protected us when we didn't know we needed it. (v17-23)
3. Jesus endured the persecution that we could not. (v24-27)

As Jesus was sovereign over the trial he faced in the Garden of Gethsemane, he is also sovereign over every trial we face. As these trials "sift us like wheat", the seed that is produced is to be used for a purpose according to God's will.

1. Jesus has a plan when we're facing a trial. (v1-3)
2. Jesus has a plan when we are under attack. (v4-9)
3. Jesus has a plan when we fail. (v10-11)
