I believe I've answered you. John the Baptist, no. Crucifixion by Pilate, I accept it could have been so.
So you agree with me that a man named Jesus who was called the Christ by His followers lived during the reign of Caesar Augustus and Tiberius Caesar and was crucified by order of Pontius Pilate.
I am sorry if I am being redundant, but I want to be sure you and I agree on this crucial matter.
