Shotgun approach

Mark 15:1-5 And as soon as it was morning, the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council. And they bound Jesus and led him away and delivered him over to Pilate. And Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” And he answered him, “You have said so.” And the chief priests accused him of many things. And Pilate again asked him, “Have you no answer to make? See how many charges they bring against you.” But Jesus made no further answer, so that Pilate was amazed.
The Jewish leaders "accused Jesus of many things."  Keep slinging mud, and maybe something will stick.  Many today play by the same rule; let us not be like that.  Let us be like Christ; His lack of self-defensiveness impacted Pilate greatly.  He was not only convinced of Christ's innocence, but challenged by His spirit.  Let us do all possible to impact those around us for Christ.
