What is truth? ... Not propositions but a real person

Morning: Psalms 26, 28; Proverbs 30:1-4, 24-33; Philippians 3:1-11
Evening: Psalms 36, 39; John 18:28-38

“What is truth?” Pilate asks Jesus. You get the strong sense that he does not think there is any such thing. Pilate may imagine that truth is a set of propositions, but we all know that what is true from one perspective may be questionable from another. Now, Jesus says he came to bear witness to the truth, and, in another place, Jesus says that he himself is the truth. According to this, truth is found not in propositions but in a person who is real ... Get to know Jesus and you will get to know what truth is.
