Luke 19:28-20:18

With our entry into verse 28 we head into Luke’s third and last major section of his gospel. Jesus has now arrived in Jerusalem to accomplish the salvation that has been anticipated and written about in the OT. Jesus enters as the King of Kings who will make possible the peace with God we need. But the triumph of His entry will give way to the tragedy of rejection. Jesus in kindness and with great love gives the verdict that all who reject the Son will face the just judgment of God. We learn from these verses that despite his rejection by many, Jesus is God’s promised King.
