Best Answer

The Roman government, through Pontius Pilate, was the immediate person who ordered it, the centurions (Roman soldiers) were the ones who enforced it. Every single human being on earth, through his own personal sin, is the reason that Jesus had to carry and die on the cross. In other words, you and I compelled Our Blessed Lord to carry His Cross.

Another perspective:If the question meant to ask, "Who was compelled to carry Jesus' cross," the answer is found in Matthew's gospel:

Matthew 27:31, 32 - And when they had mocked Him, they took the robe off Him, put His own clothes on Him, and led Him away to be crucified. Now as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name. Him they compelled to bear His cross. [NKJV]

Well, what he actually carried was the crosspiece of the cross - the upright was already in place on Calvary. He carried it because it was standard practice for the condemned to carry their own crosspiece up to Calvary. It was not a "special punishment" thought up just for Jesus, but it does show that the Romans regarded him as merely another common criminal.
