Who Really Killed Jesus? (Rethinking the Cross)

If Jesus had to die, whose idea was it—God’s or ours?

Many Christians assume God required the crucifixion to satisfy divine wrath, but have you ever noticed how clearly the apostles place responsibility for Jesus’ death on humanity? 

In Acts 2, Peter says explicitly, "you put him to death." Yet many believers still think God demanded Jesus’ murder. How could the murderers of Jesus possibly be fulfilling God’s will?

In this powerful episode, Jerry Robinson invites us to carefully revisit the Scriptures. He walks listeners step-by-step through what the apostles and Jesus Himself actually said about the cross. Far from a divine act of wrath, the crucifixion becomes a powerful revelation of humanity’s rejection of perfect love—and God's extraordinary response of redemptive love.
