Big Idea - Why does the King who hid now choose to be seen?
Because He came not to reign but to die — and He must die as a rejected King, not a misunderstood teacher. The cross only means what it means if the One hanging on it is the rightful King. And that forces a decision on every one of us: Will we reduce Jesus to a teacher whose words we can take or leave, or will we surrender to the only King who uses all His power not to take from us, but to give everything for us?
