HE TOOK BARABBAS' PLACE | The Last Supper Club · John 18
Welcome back to The Last Supper Club! Inspired by Jesus and the way He loved eating with His friends, Swarzy is serving up dinner and discussion - all drenched in the Gospel of John. Whether you're familiar or simply curious, The Last Supper Club is a space for anyone who is hungry to discover more about Jesus. Expect good food and good convos that will leave your belly full and your soul satisfied In this episode, we're in John 18 — a chapter full of contrast. They come to arrest Jesus, He steps towards them and they fall down; Peter pulls a sword and cuts off Malchus' ear, then denies Jesus three times by the fire; Pilate asks "What is truth?" while standing in front of the man who is the way, the truth and the life; and the crowd chooses Barabbas, a guilty man on death row, instead of the only innocent one. Around a sweet-and-sour table (sweet and sour chicken, fried rice, teriyaki salmon, and marble cake — chocolate, vanilla and marshmallow), the room talks guilty pleasures, cock-crow moments when we've dropped the ball, the difference between guilt and shame, godly sorrow that leads to repentance, and who we are in the story: Peter, Pilate or Barabbas. The greatest contrast is the exchange: Jesus swaps places with the guilty.
