What Does Jesus Say about Death? (4 of 5)
Series: When Jesus Says Amen

John 12:20-26
Good morning to our both NRHBC and Cross Church family who are joining us online. A special welcome to those of you who are guests joining us as well. Please also know you can call one of our pastors for prayer at the numbers you see. Many of you are watching us on Facebook and we invite you interact with the message in the comments section as the message goes along.
Isolated because of the Coronavirus, we are meeting for worship online again. A distraught husband asked to me to pray this week with these words: ''We are 15 days into self-isolation and it is really upsetting me to witness [my wife] standing at the living room window gazing aimlessly into space with tears running down her cheeks. It breaks my heart to see her like this. I have thought very hard about how I can cheer her up. I have even considered letting her in - but rules are rules.''
More seriously, there is no substitute for gathering together in person. How I look forward to seeing everyone face to face! Even though a virus can keep us out of our buildings for a while, there is no virus that can stop the church from being the church! Amen? Today, I want to speak to you about this subject, ''What Does Jesus Say about Death.''
Palm Sunday
Today is Palm Sunday when Jesus entered into Jerusalem to the fanfare of many worshipping Him. I invite you to find John 12 with me. You'll find the story of Palm Sunday beginning in John 12:12, but our focus this morning is what likely happens the following day on Monday. You'll see in a moment that our Scripture today is speaking of a feast. The feast is Passover that our Jewish friends will celebrate on Wednesday (April 8) of this week. Keep in mind that our story takes place just four days before Jesus is crucified.
