Why All the Excitement?

Jesus Christ is the most remarkable and fascinating person in history. He has
inspired more hope, taught more compassion, and shown more love than any
other man who has ever lived.

When He walked on earth, Jesus stirred people wherever He went. Crowds
followed Him; hands reached out to Him; voices called to Him; people pushed
and sometimes trampled one another just to see Him, to hear Him teach, to bring
their sick to be healed.

Jesus' popularity grew until many wanted to make Him king of the Jews. Once,
when He entered Jerusalem, the capital city of Israel, crowds lining the wayside
pulled off their cloaks and broke off palm branches to throw in front of Him.
Voices shouted:

"Hosanna to the Son of David!"
"Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!"
"Hosanna in the highest!"
When he entered Jerusalem, the whole city took notice.
People gathered asking, "Who is this man?"
Others answered, "This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth"
(Matthew 21:9-11).

He has also been the cause of more wars, deaths, and misery, per
capita, than any other person.
