No one put Jesus on the cross....He went willingly and by the Father's will. And it was MEN that did it.....
He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.
Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.
And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, Oh my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.
And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.0
No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.
Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?
Jesus answered, “You could have no power at all against Me unless it had been given you from above. Therefore the one who delivered Me to you has the greater sin.”
Yes, the battle between good and evil, light and darkness ensued between God and Satan.....MEN are the pawns and Yet the above makes it crystal clear that MEN put Jesus on the cross and they had no power over Christ....HE WENT WILLINGLY!
I still want to see a verse that says....SATAN PUT JESUS ON THE CROSS!!!

E
We go to the grave when we die. We aren't present with the Lord until He comes and raises us up and gives us our glorified bodies.
That's MY understanding anyway.
That's MY understanding anyway.
To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.
