"What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we that are dead in sin live any longer therein? Know ye not that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into His death? Therefore, we are buried with Him by baptism into death, that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we should walk in newness of life ... for if we had been planted together in the likeness of His death, we hsall be also [in the likeness] of [His] resurrection.
Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with [Him], that the body of sin might be destroyed that henceforth we should not serve sin, for he that is dead is freed from sin. Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall live with Him knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dies no more; death hath no more dominion over Him. For in that He died, He died unto sin once, but in that He liveth He liveth unto God. Likewise, reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord." (Romans 6:1-11)
Our blessed hope is in Jesus who was scourged for our sakes. The soldiers platted a crown of thorns on His head, and they put on him a purple robe, And said, "Hail, King of the Jews!" and then smote Him with their hands.
Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith unto the people who demanded that Jesus be crucified, "Behold, I bring Him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in Him." And Pilate saith unto them, "Behold the man!" But when the chief priests therefore and officers saw Him, they cried out even more, saying, "Crucify Him, crucify Him." Pilate saith unto them, "Take ye Him, and crucify Him: for I find no fault in Him."
The Jews answered him, "We have a law, and by our law He ought to die, because He made Himself the Son of God." In another scripture, the Jews wanted to stone Jesus because He made Himself to be God.
Even so, when Pilate heard that saying, he was even more afraid, and went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, "Whence art Thou?" But Jesus gave him no answer. Then saith Pilate unto Him, "Speakest Thou not unto me? Knowest Thou not that I have power to crucify Thee, and have power to release Thee?"
But Jesus knew what was about to happen. In fact, He had repeatedly told His disciples about His pending death, and that He would be raised after three days and three nights. Jesus answered Pilate, 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."
And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release Him: but the Jews cried out, saying, "If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar's friend: whosoever maketh Himself a King speaketh against Caesar." When Pilate heard their saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha. And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, "Behold your King!"

Imagine how that must have gone over. Here was Pilate saying to the angry crowds who only wanted to crucify Jesus -- "Behold your King."
Jesus Of Nazareth The King Of The Jews. Jesus of Nazareth, our Lord God and Saviour who willingly shed His precious blood on the cross for you and I. Don't reject Jesus any longer. Rather, repent of your sin and be baptized into the precious name of Jesus ... and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. (Acts 2:37-42)

The offence of one judgement came upon all men to condemnation but the righteousness of one the free gift upon all men unto justification of life by Jesus. (Romans 5:18-21) Seek His righteousness and mercy and love for you today. Stand in the offering plate.
