Pilate saith unto him, What is TRUTH? when he had said this, he went again unto the the Jews and saith unto them, I find in him no fault at all'' John 18:37-38 KJV
Hmmm...., that was thousands of years ago when Pilate paused that question '' What is TRUTH'', can I pause the same question to you dear reader, what would you say unequivocally is Truth?
Notice that Pilate did not wait to get an answer to his question, I am sure had he exercised some bit of listening skills and patience, he would not have been disappointed, realise that Pilate and Jesus were in the 'hall of Judgement' and for some reason he had to ask this fundamental question, what is truth?!
I find that quite fascinating. In today's terms It would be an absolute miscarriage of Justice to pronounce a judgement without the truth at hand. Some how I believe Pilate Knew the truth as he later told the Jews that he finds no fault at all! with Jesus, so why the question?
Well dear friend, in 2 Timothy 3:16 we are told that ''All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness'
I am sure in your life, you have been confronted with situations and circumstances where you have but asked what the truth is. The WHY question is the question invariably designed to elicit truth, question is, do you get the truth?
The truth is rarely on the appearrance of things, probe for the real truth.
Below is a poem about TRUTH, hope it helps you appreciate life and living:
TRUTH
Is whole, can not be be divided, added, multiplied nor subtracted.
It stands on its own unashamed, its no respecter of persons,
Its Immutable.
Truth; the foundation of confidence, the building block
for love and compassion.
The benchmark for Justice
Your insurance against doubt and fear, the only cure for any ailment,
The only thing with inbuilt perfection and reliability.
The prerequisite for living in freedom,
Truth; is indispensable, same yesterday, today and forever more.
The wisdom developer
You get truth by revelation,
You live in and with truth by faith
You ignore/abandon truth at your own peril.
Love TRUTH, live TRUTH, breath TRUTH
Its You birthright.
'Ascribe ye greatness unto our God. He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all His ways are judgement: a God of TRUTH and without iniquity, just and right is He. Deuteronomy 32:3-4 KJV
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the TRUTH, and the life: no man commeth unto the Father but by Me. John 14 :6
The truth will never let you down, you can count on it at anytime, any day at any place. All that there is, is in the TRUTH.
Stay blessed,
Peace N Love,
Libs.
