What happens to a man who realizes Jesus is the Son of God a moment after he has slain Jesus? Can such a man be forgiven? The Roman Centurion, given the name Popillius, the slayer of Jesus, becomes a seeker of Jesus, then a student of Jesus, and finally a servant of Jesus. Popillius is the only man who will ever experience the elation of seeing Jesus as the Son of God and immediately after, the terror of knowing he has just killed the Son of God.
