A magistrate is regarded as someone having the super powers in the worldly human sense but I see Jesus Christ overiding all their powers and instituting his dominion ,authrity and power. He said unless the power is given from above that is Christ himself.

Look Mr.Pilate, I came to fulfill the old testiment prophecies. Now I am to be beaten, mocked, spat upon, cursed, despised, then nailed to a cross until dead. This is my FATHER GOD 'S will that I do this and I love you as well as my accusers. So unless you would take my place, let 's get the show on the road. HALLELUJAH! HALLELUJAH! PRAISE GOD! JESUS LIVES! JESUS HEALS! JESUS SAVES! JESUS LOVES! HALLELUJAH! AMEN. IT IS DONE.
