A Conversation with Jesus
A Conversation With Jesus… on Truth
What is truth? This question, asked by Pilate, a Roman governor in Jerusalem, has echoed down through the centuries and still has ramifications today. His job as representative of Rome and Roman law required that he discover out the truth about the charges brought against the prisoner before him. So he asked Jesus. The answer Jesus gives and Pilate’s reaction are enlightening. The truthfulness of Jesus’ words matter. Will you respond in the same way as Pilate?

In this exposition on John 18:28-19:16, the author explores the nature of truth. It is not intended to be a comprehensive treatment of the concept of truth, but instead it draws out the aspect of truth that is uncovered in this exchange between Jesus and Pilate. The author does a good job of connecting Pilate's apparent attitude toward truth with our contemporary view that truth is relative.

"What is truth?" This is the famous question Pontius Pilate poses to Jesus on the very brink of His crucifixion...and it forms the basis of the discussion in this little gem of a book. The author's insights into Pilate and his way of thinking are, to my mind, very insightful and thought-provoking.
