Day 22- Jesus Heads to Jerusalem
Day 22- Jesus Heads to Jerusalem
The religious leaders dare not kill Jesus openly. He and His disciples are preaching and proclaiming the Kingdom and changing countless lives through demonstrations of healing power. But the religious leaders are exercising their control and opposition to Jesus whenever they can. On their way to Jerusalem, Jesus and his disciples are refused lodging in a Samaritan town. The town's people are afraid to help Jesus for fear of what the religious leaders will do. Jesus sends His disciples on up to Jerusalem ahead of Him and later secretly enters the city. It is the Feast of Booths and thousands of Jews from all around Israel are visiting to celebrate in obedience to the Torah, the Law of Moses. Jesus doesn't remain hidden for long. He is on a mission with a message. He is the Light of the world.
