“What is Truth?” Pilate asked Jesus. Jesus did not answer.
The evil in this world is LOUD! It clamors to be heard. “The ambiguous and false, the unworthy and mean, will eventually confute themselves. So the truth can afford to be quiet,” said Charles Spurgeon.
God works in unexpected ways. Quiet ways. The creator of the stars became a poor Galilean rabbi in order to carry our sins to the cross. It is impossible to understand. The Jewish people were looking for their Messiah, but they did not expect Him to do something like that.
Yet over 2000 years later, the name of Jesus is spoken everywhere. It is often slung about as a curse word when we are slightly inconvenienced. It is sung and worshipped by His children in every land. It is the name above all names.
We need to listen for the still, small voice. We need to ask to hear wisdom. We need to seek and we will find. We need to do it before it is too late.
Jesus did not answer Pilate when he asked “What is Truth?” Because He had already answered.
Jesus says, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life.” (John 14:6)
Happy Easter! He is Risen!
