First of all let it be observed that Jesus was accused, and found innocent of the very crime that Barabbas was guilty of; inciting a riot (in Barabbas’ case this included murder). Barabbas, the guilty man, was set free because Jesus, the innocent Man, took his place; literally Christ took his place on the cross. The same is true for every man, woman and child today. They walk the Barabbas road because Jesus took their place on the cross. They, like Barabbas have been offered the free gift of eternal life. We are trying to reach La Jolla and all of San Diego, with the message that they walk the Barabbas road and can be set free from their sin, have eternal life and a relationship with the Creator of the universe through faith in the substitutionary work of Christ on the cross.
Who Is Barabbas?
