Answer:

He spoke of His second coming and told parables of the kingdom of God

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Gospels, Jesus Christ rode on a donkey into Jerusalem, and the celebrating people there laid down their cloaks and small branches of trees in front of him, singing Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord. We bless you from the house of the Lord

Jesus wanted to let his disciples know that he was not sending them on a “go-for” mission—the equivalent of a modern day Starbuck's run. Little did these two disciples know that their task was critical to the Palm Sunday event. ... This donkey was born for Jesus' wonderful work.

For the Jews, Jerusalem was the holy City of God. When Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey, He fulfilled an Old Testament prophecy and left little doubt that He was accepting the title of Messiah. Jesus was adored by the crowds of people who had come to Jerusalem for Passover.

He spoke of His second coming and told parables of the kingdom of God. Most of all He said we must put our total trust in God and put that trust into action with kindness for other people
