"But with loud shouts they insistently demanded that he be crucified, and their shouts prevailed. So Pilate decided to grant their demand." -Luke 23:23-24

In heat of opposition, will I be able to hold onto the truth I know? And how will I resist overpowering dominance from the other party? Pilate failed this test. He chose his safety and personal gain over acting according to his conscience.

Bear in mind that every time I give into the crowd, 
I am handing Jesus over to them.
