People Jesus met on His way to the Cross.
Jesus encountered many kinds of people on the day He was crucified. This post takes a close look at the roles played by these people from His trial to His eventual crucifixion.

These were the religious power brokers wielding tremendous influence over the people and the government of the day. Over time, this strict sect of people became offended with Jesus, because they felt threatened by His rising popularity and the way He has been tackling them on various contentious issues.
They were losing followers to Jesus. And the more accepted Jesus became amongst the people, the less relevant it appeared that these revered religious group became. Out of sheer envy, they delivered Jesus to governor Pilate to have Him destroyed.

Perhaps I’m number 14 – Although I know I have been forgiven of my past Sins and of this I have no doubt but I do not take lightly that I spat at Jesus, that I nailed Him to the Cross, mocked Him, pieced His side, than gave Him vinegar for his thirst, that because of my sin I separated Him from His beloved Father and yet He gave His all to save me, even asking that I be forgiven while He was in agonizing pain and His heart was breaking and yes He did this even though I caused Him great suffering more than anyone can comprehend… it was my Sin that nailed Him to the Cross and it was me who pieced his hands with rusty nails. I will never forget I did this to Jesus or feel I have the right not to forgive others for the wrong they do to me or those I Love. Do I wait for them to say sorry No! but of course they can’t receive it till they do but it sets me free and Satan doesn’t have a foothold in my life because of bitterness and resentment.
