What Are You?

Today's message is based on Hebrews 2:6-9:
 6But one in a certain place testified, saying, What is man, that thou art mindful of him? or the son of man that thou visitest him?
 7Thou madest him a little lower than the angels; thou crownedst him with glory and honour, and didst set him over the works of thy hands:
 8Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that he put all in subjection under him, he left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him.
 9But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels for the suffering of death, crowned with glory and honour; that he by the grace of God should taste death for every man.
The main sermon points are:

Palm Sunday: What Does This Mean For Me?

Today's sermon examined the triumphal entry as recorded in John 12:12-16:
12On the next day much people that were come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
 13Took branches of palm trees, and went forth to meet him, and cried, Hosanna: Blessed is the King of Israel that cometh in the name of the Lord.
 14And Jesus, when he had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written,
 15Fear not, daughter of Sion: behold, thy King cometh, sitting on an ass's colt.
 16These things understood not his disciples at the first: but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they that these things were written of him, and that they had done these things unto him.
The points of our sermon were:

Jesus is approachable
Jesus is the King
Jesus is the Conqueror
Jesus is our dwelling place

Note:  Before the sermon, a congregation member, Tom Burns, discusses Bible memorization.  We are going to recommit to memorizing a scripture verse every week.  Our verses will go in sequence through a chapter of the Bible.  This week's memory verse is Romans 6:1 - What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
