Easter's Call To Choose

Jesus had never wronged them. If they knew who He was they may have seen Him raise Lazarus from the dead days earlier. Or, maybe they saw Him bless children as parents brought theirs to Him. They might have heard Him say, "Blessed are the peacemakers." He wanted people to know God. How do they demand His execution? How do they choose a murderer to be free in their community over Jesus? That is not a safe choice. That is just stupid.
