The Gospel According to John |"Truth On trial" John 18:28–40; John 19:1–16 | Lukas Klause

In this guest message, Lukas Klause walks through Jesus' trial before Pilate and asks a challenging question: When following the truth becomes costly, what will we choose? Pilate recognized Jesus' innocence, yet when his position, reputation, and security were threatened, he ultimately chose himself over the truth standing before him. Lukas reminds us that simply knowing or admiring the truth isn't the same as surrendering to it. While everyone around Him compromised, Jesus remained faithful—even when obedience led Him to the cross. Because Jesus chose the cross for us, we're invited to choose Him: to know the truth, live the truth, and surrender our lives to the One who is Truth. Scripture: John 18:28–40; John 19:1–16; John 8:31–32
