The people choosing force
not seeing Christ before
them
not seeing God, the Word
Love come from heaven
Barabbas seeking
rebellion
to overthrow the Romans
an illusion of freedom
when Pilate set him free
But he was still a
prisoner
Christ was the true
freedom
his life to atone for us
paying the price for us
He balanced the scales
squaring the ledgers
God’s judgment on us
the price paid by God

This
Lenten Season, we are doing something a little different. We are doing Lenten
Dramas from: http://www.sermonsfromseattle.com/home.htm
It is called "The Voice of God". We are hearing conversations between
God and some of the characters that took part in Passion Week. It has been a
"moving experience" for all. . .
