A prominent Jewish leader on Friday asked actor Mel Gibson (news) to make certain that his new film on the last 12 hours in the life of Christ does not portray the Jews as collectively responsible for the crucifixion. This keeps coming up. Jesus as Christ came here to be crucified. That was the purpose. In the face of that purpose, whatever human agency brought it about is moot. God preordained and was "responsible" for the entire sequence of events. End of issue.
Did Jesus Christ come here to be crucified or did Jesus Christ come to remain obedient to the Father and to lead the Jewish nation as their Messiah?
Since Jesus Christ was the Perfect Lamb, the Perfect Sacrifice, who was the priest making the offering?
