Would be nice to think did happen.
One way to find out for sure, but I’m not ready for that yet.
[John 19:19-22] And Pilate posted a sign on the cross that read, “Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.” The place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and the sign was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek, so that many people could read it. Then the leading priests objected and said to Pilate, “Change it from ‘The King of the Jews’ to ‘He said, I am King of the Jews.’” Pilate replied, “No, what I have written, I have written.”
[Romans 10:9] — “If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”
~~~~~~~~~~~
Pilate confessed with his mouth (and wrote it down in three languages!) that Jesus is Lord (”King”).
Pilate was of course alive during the resurrection, and present for all of the Jewish drama around the crucifixion. He was a participant in the activities around the resurrection.
I am able to believe that Pontius Pilate confessed that Jesus was LORD and believed in his heart — knew — that Christ was risen from the dead. And, therefore, saved, as Paul set out in his letter to the Romans.
Interesting. Will read later
Very interesting.
Like others have said, not ready to go and see for myself!
Everybody wants to go to heaven but nobody wants to die.
It’s always a good thing when someone becomes a Christian. Let’s hope that he and his family did.
That would be wonderful if it happened.
Pilate was a Samite, a tribe south of Rome conquered by the Romans
He managed to climb into the ranks of Roman aristocracy
Would you, could you, be quiet about realizing you permitted the torturing os God’s son?
The fact he did not proclaim repentence loud and clear, accepting consequences, twlls all we need to know. Half hearted or no conversion.
June 25th is St. Pilot day in the Coptic Church in Egypt. He and his wife became a faithful part of St. Mark’s ministry there.
A real editor could have saved this writing. Sometime the icons are there and sometimes they disappear?
According to the fictional 29th chapter of ACTS Pilate threw himself off a mountan and was washed into Lake Lucerne Switzerland. As Paul was passing by an earthquake changed the shape of the lake to look like Christ on the Cross. St Paul must have had an aircraft or drone to notice the change of the lake.
Acts 29(fictional)
Acts 29:18 “And after much preaching and toil Paul and his fellow labourers passed into Helvetia, and came unto Mount Pontius Pilate, where he who condemned the Lord Jesus dashed himself down headlong, and so miserably perished.”
Acts 29:19 “And immediately a torrent gushed out of the mountain and washed his body, broken in pieces into a lake.”
Acts 29:20 “And Paul stretched forth his hands upon the water, and prayed unto the Lord, saying, O Lord God give a sign unto all nations that here Pontius Pilate, which condemned thine only begotten Son, plunged headlong into the pit.”
Acts 29:21 “And while Paul was yet speaking, behold there came a great earthquake, and the face of the waters was changed, and the form of the lake like unto the Son of Man hanging in the agony upon the cross.”

Again, a fictional account found in 1871. “No trace of the original Greek manuscript has been found to date and for this reason the document is considered a fake. Also, the document appeared at a time when supposedly a ‘new theory’ was in vogue that the Britons were part of the lost tribes of Israel.”
Wasn’t it Pontius Pilate who introduced Pilates to Judea.
