That leaves betrayer Judas Ischariot, Jewish conspirators, and Pontius Pilate who was pressured to hand Jesus over to guards who killed him. To find out culprit, let us see a statement of Jesus to Pilate during his trial at John chapter 19 verse 11: "This is why man that handed me over to you has greater sin." And another statement of admission of guilt by Jews to Pilate at Matthew 27 verse 25: "At that all people said in answer: ‘His blood come upon us and upon our children.' "
So question arises again: Who really killed Jesus Christ? Answer: The Jews murdered him. And they paid for this in 70 C.E when Rome destroyed that nation. But even today, people are still killing Jesus Christ in ‘small' and ‘big' ways.
Consider one ‘small' way, wearing of cross. Jesus did not die on cross (Latin ‘cruz') , but on a tree or pole (Greek ‘stauros'). See King James Bible at Acts 5:30; 10:39; Galatians 3:13; and compare Deuteronomy 21:22,23. The cross is a pagan symbol, sign of Babylonian god Tammuz, son of Astarte, goddess of fertility, which some ‘Christians' celebrate as Easter. Besides, Bible condemns wearing of images.—Exodus 20:4,5; 1Corinthians 10:14; 1John 5:21.
Even then consider this: Imagine that a triple-edged sword has killed your best friend and you are searching for his murderers. Then you meet someone wearing that very instrument of death on his neck. What would you do to him? Strangle him! That is what should be done to those cross-wearing ‘Christians': hang them all!
What of in ‘big' things? Consider this quotation by ‘Chicago Tribune': "Every major religion preaches peace and brotherhood and mercy, yet some of cruellest and most intolerant repressions in history have been committed in name of God." And this one by ‘Waterloo Courier' of Iowa: "Nor have Christians ever been squeamish about waging wars on other Christians. If they had been, most of liveliest wars in Europe would never have occurred. . . . World Wars I and II, which set all-time records, for Christians killing Christians, could never have occurred."
Yet teaching of Jesus on this is clear: he who lives by sword would perish by sword. And at Isaiah 2:4, it is stated that Christians should beat their swords into plowshares. But sadly, Christians are engaged in wars around globe killing fellow believers and no-believers.
Military personnels and their commanders are slaughtering innocent people daily in vain hope of stamping terrorism from face of earth and making world a peaceful home for mankind. And UN (called Talking Nations in my book CHASING SHADOWS!: A Dream), which has Isaiah 2:4 conspicuously written on wall of its headquarters in New York, is shamelessly supervising all these pogrom The aggregation of these choreographers of genocide are killing Christ again.
