Then he went out again to the people and told them, \u201cHe is not guilty of any crime.<\/i><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">\u201cWhat is truth?\u201d, Pilate asked. In <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.bible.com\/en-GB\/bible\/116\/JHN.18.37\">John 18:<sup>37<\/sup><\/a> \u201c<i>\u2026Actually, I was born and came into the world to testify to the truth. All who love the truth recognize that what I say is true<\/i>.\u201d Jesus said, \u2018Everybody that loves the truth and knows the truth follows Me.\u2019 Pilate asked, \u201cWhat is truth?\u201d Pilate was a Roman political<!--more--> leader and those men were learned. \u201cWhat is truth?\u201d Pilate asked and this was and is a huge issue even in theological and religious circles today. What is truth? The concept of truth has been nagging humanity from time immemorial. Even today people will say truth is relative. And some will say truth is absolute; it is either the truth or not the truth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">When you check, the major religious leaders of the world all had something to say about truth. Buddha on his death bed was asked, \u2018What is truth?\u2019 Buddha on his death bed said, \u2018I do not know.\u2019 He is an honest man, he deserves credit. Krishna, in addressing the concept of truth, said \u2018To get the truth you need to chant Krishna Krishna Rama Rama, Krishna Krishna Rama Rama, Krishna Krishna Rama Rama. And when you have chanted, maybe you will get the truth because the truth is like a butterfly. It can easily fly away.\u2019 All these things I am sharing are in the public domain so I encourage you to search it out for yourself.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">In addressing the concept of truth, Mohammed of Islam himself said, \u2018I have told you before I am just a prophet pointing to the truth.\u2019 At least the man was truthful in the fact that he is not saying he knows. We do not know if he is a prophet, or if he is actually pointing to the truth. But he did not claim it and that is commendable. Jesus came and said, \u201c<i>I am the Way, the Truth and the Life, no one comes to the Father but by Me<\/i>.\u201d So, Jesus is saying, \u2018truth is a Person \u2013 Me, Jesus.\u2019 Truth is a Person and His Name is Jesus. It is beautiful to follow Jesus, isn&#8217;t it? <a href=\"https:\/\/www2.bible.com\/en-GB\/bible\/1588\/JHN.14.6\">John 14:<sup>6<\/sup><\/a> \u201cJesus said to him, \u201c<i>I am the [only] Way [to God] and the [real] Truth and the [real] Life; no one comes to the Father but through Me<\/i>.\u201d (AMP]. This concept of truth that has been nagging humanity from time immemorial is embodied in one Person \u2013 Jesus! Who would you rather follow? I have decided to follow Jesus and there is no turning back.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">No one else in all of history has been bold enough to make the kind of statements Jesus made. No other world religious leader claimed to be the truth. Again, I urge you to search it out for yourself. Truth is a person and His Name is Jesus. If you are reading this today and you would like to follow this Jesus, to give your life, your heart, and your soul to Him. As an act of faith, I want you to just put up your hands wherever you are. Heaven sees you and has taken note of you. Open your heart to the Truth, the Person of Jesus, and surrender your life, your heart, and soul to Him.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><b>Prayer: <\/b>Father, I thank You for opening my eyes to Your Word and I ask that Your Word will do me good. Help me share Truth with everyone around me, in Jesus Name. Amen!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>John 18:38\u00a0\u201cWhat is truth?\u201d Pilate asked.
