The Innocent Insurrection

In Luke 23:1-25, as Jesus appears on trial before Roman authorities, we see Jesus’ innocence starkly on display. More than that, we see Jesus’ innocence in contrast with Barabbas’ guilt, a glorious picture of the great exchange of the gospel that takes place between Jesus and sinners who put their faith in Him. His sacrifice began an innocent insurrection-His loving kingdom invading the earth through believers.
