Permalink(“public” crucifixions) has to execute an individual by crucifixion the
law mentions pitch and wax, which were used to torture the victims with fire.
In classical Latin texts, incidentally, the individual to be crucified never
carried a crux (vertical beam or entire cross) but only the patibulum
(horizontal piece). When a criminal carried the patibulum, the crux (vertical
beam, in this case) was already set in place. That implies that in John 19:17
Jesus only carried the horizontal member of the cross to Golgotha, since
Pilate would have followed Roman procedure. See Also: Crucifixion in the
Mediterranean World (WUNT 327, Tübingen, 2014).

This shows the various forms of what went on at the times surrounding Christ
on a Pole, physically. See the full paper for in-depth information.
This paper provides clarity for those that are least informed. What Christ
actually carried, then another carried it for him to Golgotha.
Yet, there is another meaning to carry a "your" cross that has nothing to do
with punishment or self-inflicted pain, which Jesus spoke of while here on
earth.
This paper addresses indirectly the falsehoods of the Jehovah Witnesses who
vainly attempt to diminish the work of The Christ while here on earth, who
literally do not care to know what he did for us as individuals in this life
aa well as life eternal. For that is the true Gospel of Christ, of which many
‘christians’ who lacking are also unaware of, or dispute the reality of
it for their present life. Why the ignorance? In part because of false
teachings by their leaders as well as they do not follow the leading of the
Lord, and just follow traditional thinking of men.
