Eternal Consequences

...your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought: But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 1 Corinthians 2***113: Barabbas Released And Jesus MockedMatthew 27:15-30; Mark 15:6-19; Luke 23:13-25; John 18:39-19:16Barabbas Released And Jesus MockedWhen Pilate could find nothing in Jesus worthy of death, he said to Jesus’ accusers:            “Ye have a custom that I should release unto you one at the Passover. Will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?”            The people cried out:            “Not this man, but Barabbas.”            Barabbas was a robber.            So Barrabas–the insurrectionist, robber, and murderer–was released; and Jesus was turned over to be crucified.            He was scourged by Pilate, and the soldiers who guarded him covered him with a purple robe and placed a crown of thorns on his head. Then, as they struck him with their hands, they said:            “Hail, King of the Jews!”            Then Pilate said to the people:            “Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in him.”            As Jesus came out, garbed in purple and wearing the crown of thorns, Pilate said:             “Behold the man!”            The chief priests and officers cried out:            “Crucify him, crucify him.”            Pilate said to them:            “Take ye him and crucify him, for I find no fault in him.”            Jesus’ accusers replied:             “We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.”            When he heard this, Pilate was afraid. He asked Jesus:            “Whence art thou?”            Jesus did not answer.            Pilate tried again, saying:            “Speakest thou not unto me? Knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?”            Jesus answered him, saying:            “Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above. Therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin.”            Again Pilate sought to release Jesus, but the people shouted:            “If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar’s friend. Whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.”            Then Pilate took Jesus before the judgment seat in the place called the Pavement, known in Hebrew as Gabbatha. It was about the sixth hour. Pilate said to the Jews:            “Behold your King!”            The Jews shouted:            “Away with him, away with him, crucify him.”            Pilate answered:     &nbs
