Topic: Trial of Jesus

And as Barabbas walks away a free man I picture Jesus standing there, looking at Barabbas. He doesn’t say anything. He doesn’t proclaim his innocence. He just looks at Barabbas… He stands there guilty of something he did not do. He just locks eyes with Barabbas. Who’s Barabbas?… Barabbas is you and Barabbas is me. We are guilty. Yet He pays our punishment. Because love says, “I’ll take that!”
