The Love of Christ

2 Corinthians 5:14-21 
(14) For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:  
(15)  And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.  
(16)  Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.  
(17)  Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.  
(18)  And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;  
(19)  To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.  
(20)  Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.  
(21)  For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.


The Triumphal Entry

Luke 19:28-44 
(28)
And when he had thus spoken, he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem.  
(29)  And it came to pass, when he was come nigh to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mount called the mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples,  
(30)  Saying, Go ye into the village over against you; in the which at your entering ye shall find a colt tied, whereon yet never man sat: loose him, and bring him hither.  
(31)  And if any man ask you, Why do ye loose him? thus shall ye say unto him, Because the Lord hath need of him.  
(32)  And they that were sent went their way, and found even as he had said unto them.  
(33)  And as they were loosing the colt, the owners thereof said unto them, Why loose ye the colt?  (34)  And they said, The Lord hath need of him.  
(35)  And they brought him to Jesus: and they cast their garments upon the colt, and they set Jesus thereon.  
(36)  And as he went, they spread their clothes in the way.  
(37)  And when he was come nigh, even now at the descent of the mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works that they had seen.
(38)  Saying, Blessed be the King that cometh in the name of the Lord: peace in heaven, and glory in the highest.  
(39)  And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.  
(40)  And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.  
(41)  And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,  
(42)  Saying, If thou hadst known, even thou, at least in this thy day, the things which belong unto thy peace! but now they are hid from thine eyes.  
(43)  For the days shall come upon thee, that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee, and compass thee round, and keep thee in on every side,  
(44)  And shall lay thee even with the ground, and thy children within thee; and they shall not leave in thee one stone upon another; because thou knewest not the time of thy visitation.
