Our Sin Nature Will Side With Rebellion Rather Than Jesus

Luke 23:18. The essence of our sin nature is to rebel against God. This was personified when Jesus was brought before Pilate. The Jews had a choice of releasing Barabbas, a rebel, or Jesus, a man with no faults.

This is the essence of our sin nature to side with rebellion and not with God.
