They could see that Jesus was already dead, so they did not break his legs to speed up the process. As an assurance that he was truly dead, one of the soldiers stabbed him in the heart with his spear.

When was Jesus Christ removed from his cross?

The Bible doesn't actually say. It was probably Roman soldiers. It could have been Joseph of Arimathea, as he took His body for burial. Knowing the custom, I doubt the Roman soldiers would have let anyone take Him down from the cross except themselves, to be sure that He was truly dead.


What was the reaction of Thomas upon hearing the news that Jesus showed himself to the apostles?

Upon first hearing that Christ had risen from the dead, he did not believe. He was called Doubting Thomas for that reason. He did not believe until Jesus Christ showed him the hole in his side where the Roman spear had pierced him, and Thomas placed his hand into the hole and saw that it was true, and he believed.


Did God kill Jesus?

In a way, everyone "killed" Jesus because He died for our sins (Willingly though). No, Catholics didn't really kill Jesus physically, the people that killed Jesus were the people living in Jerusalem specifically the Jewish priests at the time. The people and leaders wanted Jesus dead and the Roman soldiers killed Him. We're called Roman Catholics because our Church took shape mainly around Rome and uses the Roman rite (Latin Rite). The term Roman Catholic doesn't have anything to do with Roman people at the time of Jesus. We should not hate Jews or Romans etc. since Jesus loves everybody and everyone (including Catholics) have taken part in killing Jesus through our sins.
