Reading from The Gospel According to John 18:28-40 (NLT) ~Jesus Trial Before Pilate~ Scripture reading followed by discussion. Jesus telling Pilate about His Kingdom. The picture of Pilate’s questioning is a picture of us all. When people are in love with their own “truth” they are not interested in the Truth of Jesus. The truth that actually matters is the Truth of Jesus, His sacrifice, and His example of right living.
