Marching To Glory
Dr. Warren W. Wiersbe | March 19, 1978Selected highlights from this sermon
When Jesus entered Jerusalem on a donkey, He was solely concerned with the glory of God, unlike today when so often God’s glory is forgotten by the world. But Jesus was crucified so that He might reveal it to us and to the world. As King, Savior, and Judge, Jesus shows us God’s glory.
Transcripts for Dr. Wiersbe's sermons are forthcoming. Below is an outline of his message.
