Because it is or was... The dsy Jesus rode on Donkey and people laying palm for him to pass.

The real question is

WHAT IS THE MEANING, SPIRITUAL MEANING OF IT?
The crowds action as Jesus rode into Jerusalem is where the name palm Sunday originated from, cos they cut off palm fronds and placed them on the ground as he rode by. The people believed Jesus was the political messiah sent to liberate them from the hands of the Roman's which was an illusion on their part. The spiritual meaning as you have asked, is embedded in the intention of their actions which I believe has posed a grave threat to contemporary Christianity. Prosperity is the gospel of the day in most acclaimed churches instead of salvation, and that's why most people fall prey to those who extort them in the name of Christ, who's message primary purpose is for the salvation of souls and not attainment of wealth as most have come to put at the top of their list.

You are right my brother, I noticed the anomaly too, it is nothing but religious discrimination. Meanwhile we have terrorist Muslims writing nonsensical things about Pastors and Christianity in the name of comment every day

It's not biblical , it's religious rituals established by men.. it's tradition that is widely accepted by many but not acceptable before God.
It was never commanded by God to be commemorated and it's against his will. Don't believe or accept whatsoever any explanation on this thread that is outside the word of God.
Most Christians prefer man made traditions followed by many without verifying the approval from God's word and Will.
Christians of our time are lazy and don't like persecution for standing for the truth.

Is because jesus was a jew not christian, he never worship on sunday but saturday, he followed moses not paul, the word "bible" does not appear in the book call bible, jesus called himsef son of man not son of god, whenever he performed miracle he try as much as possible to make it secret unlike men of gods that publicize their magic when they do show etc. In summary, 99.9% of what christianity contains was not from jesus but from roman pagan

In the GOSPEL of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John is were we can find stories about Jesus. His birth, ministry and death. Now according to their writings The truimphant entry took place long before His arrest. But in the catholic church the church picked up some specific readings that follow up His passion and death. The story of the samaritan woman that asked for living water is one, lazarus's ressurection is another and the truimphant entry is among. In the whole 6weeks of lent these readings in church have never been exempted yearly.

From these readings we see Jesus as who He really is. The God of the living. Ever wonder why we do not have a Patron or saint of the dead? Because as far as we are concerned there is NO DEATH IN CHRIST. On Palm sunday a King was celebrated a week later the church mourns that same King alas He is more alive in death. THE CELEBRATED KING IS AND WILL ALWAYS BE KING!!! GOD BE PRAISED!!!

Ps remember to save your palm for next years ash wednesday!

Before you start saying what you don't know, look at the screenshot below. ITK

Before you are allowed to comment on a Muslim thread you must agree that you're a Muslim. SMH

while you conveniently created the first thread in your muslim section, you created the other in the religion section...and you didn't have to swear an oath.
