I am Barabbas
In this powerful message, we're challenged to confront the 'power of darkness' in our lives. Drawing from Luke 22 and 23, we see how darkness can lead us to deny, disbelieve, mock, and belittle Jesus. The story of Jesus' arrest and trial becomes a mirror, reflecting our own struggles with faith. We're reminded that sin often thrives in darkness, snowballing from one bad decision to another. But the beauty of this message lies in its redemptive core - we're all Barabbas, deserving punishment, yet Jesus takes our place. This profound truth invites us to live as new creations in Christ, no longer defined by our past mistakes but by His love and sacrifice. As we reflect on this, we're called to choose: Will we embrace the freedom Christ offers, or return to our old ways? This message urges us to step into the light, allowing Christ's redemption to transform every aspect of our lives.
