Subject: Would you of tried to stop His execution |
Bible Note: Steve: Re your other posting, though I called the question weird, I wasn't calling you weird, nor would I do so. You are a brother in Christ who deserves my respect, courtesy and more. I know the intent of the original "story" that was posted. That it was hypothetical and intended to make a point about our love for Christ. Regarding your current question, "Mary, His mother, John were there [at His crucifixion]. So why didn't they stop the crucifixion?" I don't know. Could it be because they knew it was physically impossible to stop the crucifixion. That, had they attempted to stop it, they would have been wiped out on the spot by the Roman army? |
