Whenever you hear or read the words Crucify him, crucify him don’t immediately think only of the Jewish voices that cried out, but remember it was Roman (Gentile) hands that did the actual dirty deed. And here is the real kicker — don’t self righteously accuse only Jews because it was YOU and I who crucified Him, our sins led Him to the cross. It was our sins that kept Him on the cross. It was our sins that He bore on the cross. Adam put Him on the cross. All of humanity put Christ on the cross. WE crucified Him! The whole world, therefore, stands guilty before a righteous God. Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man . . . (Romans 2:1) – Mary Haigh
