By Jove, I think you got it!

Some make the mistake of equating God's foreknowledge with His making things to be such and such a way. Judas, I would not comment on, but Pilate was not doing God's will, BUT God allowed and knew what Pilate would do. That is not the same as God cause Pilate to do it ... in conflating the two, a person faults God, as if there is nothing that is not 'God's fault if He doesn't stop horrific things He knows will happen. THAT is a satanic perspective, the ultimate 'accuser mentality'.

indeed brother. you’ve got to the sticking point with
many who choose to hate God. these are weighty matters. but generally i’d say, the devil rejoices when we choose our way and not God’s, which has most often been the history of mankind. and he especially rejoices when we choose to hate God for not stopping us when we do.
