What is truth? That is the question - or perhaps it was more of a statement - that Pilate asked Jesus just before concluding his examination of the accused blasphemer of Jewish religion. It was the Roman governor’s response to Jesus’s comment that he came into this world to testify to the truth.
The problem with truth is that it means there’s a right and a wrong. Untrue ideas, thoughts , behaviors, lifestyles l, ways of treating people. Americans especially never like to be wrong, to lose, to be told what they’re doing or saying is not “true”. Who are you to tell me I’m wrong? Truth from Scripture cuts like a double edge sword and we are all susceptible to it piercing our own selfish ideas and behaviors. Ouch
