And they put up over His head the accusation written against Him: THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS. Matthew 27:37
What were the charges leveled against Jesus for which He was crucified? There were false charges during His trials before the Jewish religionists, but they did not stick.
The charges before His Roman judges for which He was eventually condemned was that He was the King of the Jews. These charges were true. Jesus was, is, and always be the King of the Jews.
The charges were true, but the truth is much greater than those charges alone. The fact is, Jesus was, is, and always will be the King, not just of the Jews, but of all people. Jesus was not just the King of all peoples, He was, is, and always will be the King above all kings and the Lord above all lords.
The verdict that every individual must make is whether he or she will surrender to the Kingship of Jesus. If one’s verdict is NO, that one’s penalty will be far worse than the wrath of Rome: crucifixion. It will be an eternity of the wrath of Almighty God: damnation.
Something to consider, don’t you think?
