"INRI" is the abbreviation of the Latin inscription "Iesus Nazarenus Rex Iudaeorum//Jesus of Nazareth, King of the Jews", one of three inscriptions that Pilate had affixed to the cross on which Jesus was crucified.

There were two other inscriptions, one in Greek and the other in Hebrew, the other common languages spoken in Jerusalem at the time.

(There was no letter "J" in Latin. What we now use as the "J" was an "i" back then.)

I fully grasp this as an analogy. Taking the move at the same time following Jesus manner within the circumstances while whatever feels uncomfortable, you continue to do what's correct, as a few say what Jesus could do. What occurred to Jesus while He picked up His move? First, He submitted Himself to the God's will and fulfilled the prophecy. Second, He sacrificed Himself for others. Third, in these days Jesus is with God and is God, as He used to be earlier to His first coming. Forth, His so much popular man or woman, who ever lived on Earth. What 12 months is it now, oh yeah, it’s 2009 from His beginning.
