WHY JUDGES BROKE THEIR PENS IN INDIA!
BASIC SCRIPTURE: JOHN 19: 16- 24
Years ago in India, some judges had the tradition of breaking the nib of a pen after passing a death sentence! Breaking the nib of the pen which is used to sign the order delivering that death sentence has been a tradition since the days of British governance in India.

There, a judge who took less than three minutes to deliver the quantum of sentence, broke the nib of the pen after signing the 20-page order and retired to his chambers. But when I called a wonderful, retired Supreme Court Christian brother and an ODM user in my country, he told me that as at today, such practice is not in vogue.
But historically, when it was done, the act of breaking the nib was symbolic. It is done so that the pen that was used to sign the person’s life away will never be used again. That reminds me of Pilate and the Latin phrase “Quod scripsi, scripsi – “What I have written, I have written.”

It was most famously used by Pontius Pilate in the Bible in response to the Jewish priests who objected to his writing on the sign (Titulus) that was hung above WHY JUDGES BROKE THEIR PENS IN INDIA! at His crucifixion. That ancient practice also reminds me of Psalm 40:7 – Then said I, ‘Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of Me…
Note: “IT IS WRITTEN OF ME.” That was talking of Jesus Christ! If the life and destiny of Christ was written, then yours is written also. But do you know that there are powers that are writing COUNTER WRITINGS concerning your destiny! Arise today and decree that what IS written about you by your God MUST come to pass!
Any other SENTENCE by the devil has been BROKEN and their satanic pens must catch fire! WHY JUDGES BROKE THEIR PENS IN INDIA!
