Jesus Is the Christ and the Messiah

I'm not sure the religious leaders have enough to convict him on. If they had everything they need, they wouldn't bring in a parade of goof ball witnesses just throw a bunch of crap at the wall and see if something eventually sticks. Jesus is a social genius.

But he didn't come here to get exonerated or let off the hook or walk free. He came here to die,. to be wrongfully convicted, but not just wrongfully convicted like whatever, like a brigand that's why we're puting away swords here. No
