The Crucification of Christ

[foodiepeep]

Obviously the people involved in beating and torturing Jesus and then crucifying Him were great, murderous sinners.

My question is though, because Christ's death was part of the Lord's Holy plan of Salvation, will those who participated in the event be somehow seen as "just" in their actions on Judgment Day, or will God simply treat them as He would any horrible sinner?
Also, was the Crucifixation actually a sin, and could it considered the "greatest" sin committed by mankind aside from blaspheming the Holy Spirit?

The "just" do not need forgiveness, right? Notice what Jesus had to say about them from the Cross (see below). Some could have become Christians after the fact, of course ... see Matt 27:54 ... so treating them like a "horrible sinner" on Judgment Day is not a given either.

Jesus was saying, “Father, forgive them;
for they do not know what they are doing.”
Luke 23:34​

Hmmmm, a TOTALLY innocent man was murdered by nailing him to a tree? Yep, that's definitely a sin!
