The death of Christ was ordained before the foundation of the world and nothing could have changed it. The devil was really blinded to the extent that he thought he has finally got the opportunity to destroy the only Begotten Son of God and he did not see the real reason for the Death on the Cross. If he had clearly known that Christ 's Crucifixion will Snatch the Key of death and Hades from him Give us repentance Give us easy forgiveness Wash away our sins Give us a new birth Bring us closer to God Make him and the entire kingdom of darkness bite their tongues anytime the name Jesus is mentioned Make him bow before us ordinary mortals he would have fought tooth and nail to avert it. You see, Pilate has every right to set Christ free with no one questioning him WHY but everything worked according to the perfect plan because when the chief priests read the inscription "Jesus of Nazareth, The King of the Jews " and asked him to change it to "He said, I am the King of the Jews ", Pilate stamped it that "what I have written I have written " and that was final which means that he could not change the decree sanctioned from Heaven to save mankind despite the fact that he really wanted to because God sent Him to earth to die and save us.
