Jesus Faced Judgment In Front Of Pontius Pilate Series

Contributed by Robert Irvine on Jul 24, 2024

Jesus was judged by Pilate and was taken away and died on the cross at Golgotha. Pilate knew that Jesus was innocent yet he substituted the innocent man, Jesus, for the guilty robber and murderer, Barabbas.

I don’t want to repeat what has been said, but suffice it to say Jesus was judged by Pilate and was taken away and ...read more
