Pilate said
to Him, “What is truth?” And when he had said this, he went out again to the
Jews, and said to them, “I find no fault in Him at all.” (v.38)
This
was the closest Pilate would come to life’s greatest discovery. The
Roman politician had asked the right question of the right Person, and his
answer was standing before him. But instead of falling to his knees in
repentance, confession, and faith, he could only pass off the answer by concluding,
“I find no fault in Him.”
Sooner
or later, all of us find ourselves in Pilate’s position, where we must decide what to do with the Man who claims what no other can claim—that He is the truth. Millions
of people down through the centuries have found Jesus’ life, His words, and His
resurrection to be convincing evidence of His credibility. And they have
concluded that knowing the truth must begin with a personal relationship with
Christ.
Have
you found the answer to life’s most important question? If
not, consider Jesus’ statement in John 14:6.
The
Truth
“I
am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through
Me.” (John 14:6)
