We know Jesus went about teaching
and healing the sick. We know He never
sinned. But look what happened to Him
anyway. The Sanhedrin and High Priest
accused Him of blasphemy, because He
agreed with their question that He was
the Messiah.

“Then some began to spit at him; they
blindfolded him, struck him with their
fists, and said, “Prophesy!” And the
guards took him and beat him.” Mark
14:65
Later, He was sent to Pilate. Pilate
didn’t believe that Jesus committed a
crime, but:
“Wanting to satisfy the crowd, Pilate
…had Jesus flogged, and handed him
over to be crucified. The soldiers led
Jesus away…Again and again they
struck him on the head with a staff and
spit on him. …Then they led him out to
crucify him.” Mark 15:15-16, 19-20
