”The Great Exchange” Luke 23:1-25

"The Great Exchange" Luke 23:1-25

We studied the wonderful, humbling, and healing doctrine of “penal substitutionary atonement.” In Luke 23:1-25, we are going to see Herod and Pilate, hostile enemies, become friends as they examine Jesus. This strange alignment results in Jesus being sent to the cross to die as a criminal and a wicked man named Barabbas being set free. Who would have thought in this moment of grave injustice, God would be working out something that gloriously sets us free from sin and condemnation? 

Our message is called “The Great Exchange” and our prayer for all of us this week is that we might rejoice and be captivated by Jesus. Jesus has come to set us free from our guilt, our shame, and condemnation. He took our sin and punishment so we could walk away free. Do you feel deeply forgiven? Do you feel truly free? We are going to be taking the Lord’s Supper together and so we want to invite you to prepare your hearts for worship and to pray that God would set many of us free from the sin, guilt, and shame through the good news of Jesus’ death in our place!
