Pilate had a notice prepared and fastened to the cross. It read:sc JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS. Many of the Jews read this sign, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and the sign was written in Aramaic, Latin and Greek. The chief priests of the Jews protested to Pilate, "Do not write 'The King of the Jews,' but that this man claimed to be king of the Jews." Pilate answered, "What I have written, I have written." (John 19:19-22)
God and things belong to Him are not same with everything in this world. I have misunderstanded sometimes the splender of God and being a servant of God to visible. It has to be looks strong, different, serious, overpowering and holy to me. I really did not know what is 'the standard' of them. If so, even Jesus on the cross is not saticefy my standard. He is the Son of God and the most good servant of God, but if I know Him by my own thinking, He can not be a Messiah. I have been sure of wrong, thought that 'holiness' is morality what I had learned.
Pilate and all of world scoffed of Jesus Christ. They called him Jesus of Nazareth. Yes, the Lord can not be understood by man's consideration, but He was declared as King of mankind in Aramaic, Latin and Greek on the shabby cross in man's sight. He just died on the cross, but God accomplished His words at that time. God has silent power. His kingdom makes whole world tremple by His unvisible power - everlasting love.
