Through fastidious examination and reminisced how Pontius Pilate faced the dilemma on
deciding about his predicament on giving his final decision if Jesus Christ will crucify or not. In
this kind of dilemma, I felt disgusted to the decision made by Pontius Pilate instead of solving
the problem and standing on his personal convection about Jesus Christ he chose to let the crowd
to decide. He decided to use the sinful hands of the Romans to carry out the punishment. In this
scenario Pontius Pilate was thinking about how can he manage his friendship with his Boss
Cesar at the same time with Jesus Christ. His wrong decision to let the people choose who will
be free from crucifixion between Barabas the murderer and Jesus Christ who is the son of God
made the things worst. The romans choose to crucify Jesus Christ and to set Barabas free.
In this kind od scenario I truly witnessed how a certain dilemma looks like. I think the
suitable type of dilemma to this kind of situation is the obligatory dilemma in which the moral
agent is ought to considered and choose between two conflicting situation and it is being
observed that there is more than a feasible action is obligatory and that is to decide Pontius Pilate
if he will stand on his personal convection or he will rely on what the Jewish religious leaders
and the romans decisions. In my perspective if Pontius Pilate is knowledgeable enough and he
decided certainly and not by feelings or protecting his position as leader instead to follow his
personal convection about Jesus Christ crucifixion will not occur. On the hand, no matter how
Pontius Pilate decided crucifixion will happen because it was the disposition of God the father
and that is the destiny and the significant rule of Jesus Christ to serve as pay in our sins.
