Why do you think Pilate gave Jesus the title "King of the Jews"?

 Pilate gave Jesus the title " King of the Jews" for two reasons: 1) Because deep inside he had the feeling that Jesus was really a king and did not want to get on the wrong side of things. 2) The Jews wanted Jesus crucified because they did not accept Jesus as their king and so Pilate played a double game by Giving that title to make it appear to the Jews that he was mocking Jesus.

Pilate also did not want the title removed from the cross just to make it apppear that he was with those who supported the claim that Jesus was a king.Pilate was actually taking care of himself.

Why was the crowd so intent on having Jesus crucified?

The crowd of people who had gathered to force Pilate to sentence Jesus to death did not have any idea who Jesus was, because they were not His followers, they could not accept Jesus as their king. For them Ceasar was their only king, and that is one of the reasons that they wanted to see the end of Jesus. The other reason is that it was prophesied, that Jesus had to die for the forgiveness of our sins and therefore there had to be a way for his condemnation(false) and eventual cruel and painful death on behalf of our sins.

What did Pilate perceive about Jesus that made him so reluctant to have Jesus executed?
Pilate knew from the way Jesus conducted Himself with dignity and calm that there was no falsehood in Jesus. Pilate was aware that Jesus was no ordinary man and that he was truly a king. That is why Pilate washed his hands before handing over Jesus to be crucified - this symbolized Pilates reluctance to have Jesus crucified

Why do you think Peter denied Jesus?
 Peter was afraid that he too would be arrested and punished because he had cut of the ear of one of those who came to arrest Jesus.

How did Jesus` death benefit people?

 Jesus's death beneffited people because  his sacrificial death and  the Blood that Jesus shed are the only sacrifices that GOD our Father would accept as the eternal sacrifice in atonement for our sins.

The blood of animals and other GOD created creatures which were offered to GOD for the forgiveness of sins was done away with once and for all by the Blood that Jesus Christ - Son of the living GOD - shed for us.

Jesus Christ is the only one who walked on earth who did not sin at all, sure he had temptations like every other human being -but Jesus lived everyone moment of his sinless life in total obedience to His and our Father.Jesus is the spotless LAMB of GOD who shed His Precious, Powerful, Pure, Perfect and Priceless blood for our sins.

By the way - Jesus's death will benefit us only if we believe in Him as the Son of the everliving GOD and also have faith and belief in him, also proclaim that He is the Son of the Living GOD Who is our Lord and Savior.
