Pontius Pilate’s haunting question still echoes across history: “What is truth?” (John 18:37–38). In that moment, Truth Himself stood before him—Jesus Christ—yet Pilate could not see it.

Let Your Word Be Your Bond Daily Devotion
Jesus said, “Let what you say be simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything more than this comes from evil” (Matthew 5:37). His words remind us of the authenticity our speech should hold.
