Am I one of the rulers? Those who falsely accuse and sneer at Jesus, acting as if his righteousness and goodness is of personal offence to me.
Am I a soldier? Just following orders, going with the crowd, doing what I am told.
Am I an unrepentant criminal? Even in death I am unable to apologise, so full of arrogance and self-righteousness that I blindly march towards the grave and hell itself.
Am I the other criminal? The only one who Truely knows themself, the only one able to see the stink of their own sin, and the righteousness of Jesus before them.
There is only 1 answer, only 1 way that will save us. Good Friday Luke 23.13-47.
