What prisoner did Pontius Pilate free?
Pontius Pilate certainly could have freed Jesus. Historians say that it would have been unacceptable to the Roman authorities for a Roman governor to give in to the demands of the Jews in the way described in the gospels. If he really did sentence Jesus to crucifixion without due cause, he would have risked immediate recall to Rome, in disgrace. Whether or not Pontius Pilate would have altered the course of Christian history by freeing Jesus is a matter for debate. Many scholars believe that the beginning of Christianity had very little to do with the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus.
The person who asked Pontius Pilate for permission to take Jesus' body and give it decent burial?
Joseph of Arimathea.
Why did Jesus during his trial with pontius Pilot not answer Pilot's question What is truth?
The passage this question refers to is John 18:33-38 in the Bible. (specifically verses 37-38) 37"You are a king, then!" said Pilate. Jesus answered, "You are right in saying I am a king. In fact, for this reason I was born, and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to me." 38"What is truth?" Pilate asked. With this he went out again to the Jews and said, "I find no basis for a charge against him. -(NIV ) Pilate seems to be asking a rhetorical question, as he leaves Jesus' presence before he has the chance to answer. "What is truth?" as if to say, "there is no such thing as truth", or "there is no One truth", or "give me a break". Had Pilate been truly inquiring Jesus would have responded, but as it was Pilate seems more concerned with relieving the political pressure be placed on him by the Jewish religious authorities of the day. If Pilate's question is sincere, then perhaps his immediate departure to plead Jesus' innocence (v. 38) reveals a desire of Pilate's to speak privately with Jesus, after having cleared his name. But as is evident, whether or not Pilate's question is sincere, Pilate's immediate concern is with maintaining order. Order at any cost was how Rome stayed in power and this was Pilate's duty. So, to that end, Pilate's first concern was to appease the angry mob and religious leaders (both of which pressure Pilate in all four gospels), even if that means ordering the execution of a man who he strongly believes is innocent. And that is just what happens (continue reading into John chapter 19).
How many guards were outside of Jesus' tomb?
According to the Bible, there were at least two guards stationed outside of Jesus' tomb to prevent anyone from stealing his body.
What are Commitment to Jesus as his follower?
Jesus Christ tells us to believe He is who He says he is, and we will be saved. Once we believe and are saved, he will give us the desire and strength to follow him. He doesn't give us lists of rules and sacrifices we have to make. When you accept that He has suffered so terribly, to save you from so much, you will want to give Him all of you!
Why did the Romans capture Jesus?
Jesus wasn't "captured," by anyone. The use of the word 'capture' implies Jesus was some kind of fugitive from the law... which He wasn't. The ad hoc militia that arrested Him was sent by the religious leaders of the Temple. They knew where He was. They paid for the information. Jesus was subsequently handed over to the Romans early the next morning. The Romans did nothing to gain control and jurisdiction over Him. Temple authorities handed him over "on a silver platter."

What did belivers in Christianity believe about their god?
Christians believe that God is the creator of the world, and that he sent an angel to Mother Mary to tell her that she would give birth to the messiah, Jesus Christ. Sure enough, she did. Later in Jesus' life, he was to be crucified on a cross. Three days later, Jesus rose from the dead. We also believe that when we die, anyone who believes in God will go to heaven for the rest of eternity.
Was Jesus just trying to give people hope who had no hope in this world by telling them to lay up treasures in heaven in some unseen world like a cheerleader would do?
That is a skeptical view. I believe there was a lot more to Jesus than just that, but you are free to believe what you want.
