Easter through the eyes of Barabbas

When I was working on this sermon series for the Easter season I was thinking on different people that are mentioned in the gospels that either somehow played a part or were an eyewitness to the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ. I usually have the titles before I have the sermons all prepared. This week in preparing for this message I realized that you can say everything there is to say in the Bible about Barabbas in one sentence. If you really stretch if out you can say about two sentences. That’s probably why you haven’t heard very many sermons about Barabbas.
