What is truth?
In today's sermon, the pastor delves into the profound question posed by Pilate to Jesus: "What is truth?" This question, which has echoed through centuries, is explored through the lens of the Gospel of John, where the concept of truth is a central theme. The pastor highlights how John uniquely emphasizes truth, mentioning it 48 times compared to the sparse mentions in the other Gospels. Jesus' conversation with Pilate reveals that His kingdom is not of this world and that He came to bear witness to the truth, which is ultimately Himself. The sermon then transitions to our contemporary struggle with truth, discussing how postmodernism has led to a deconstruction of absolute truth, resulting in a culture where truth is seen as subjective and relative. The pastor argues that this has led to societal confusion and anxiety, as individuals cannot bear the weight of being their own ultimate reality. Instead, he emphasizes that true liberation and peace come from recognizing Jesus as the ultimate reality and truth. The sermon concludes with a call to understand the radical reordering of life that comes with following Christ and to be equipped to share this truth with others in a world that desperately needs it.
