    The leading priest shout: "We have no king but Caesar!" Never would a Jew say such a thing ever with greater impunity and more importantly with greater arrogance.

    John 19:15. "Away with him," they yelled. "Away with him! Crucify him!" "What? Crucify your king?" Pilate asked. "We have no king but Caesar," the leading priests shouted back. This is an incident that occurred over 2000 years ago. It is about the ...read more
