WHO IS THIS?

MATTHEW 21:1-10

What a question. If you talk about what Jesus did, John said, "And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen." (Jn. 21:25) The whole Bible talks about Who He is and What He does. How can we even begin to scratch the surface? We can't, but that's part of what makes Him so great. The songwriter said, "Oh for a thousand tongues to sing my great Redeemer's praise!" There are many ways to approach this.
