| A Remorseful Pilate Prepares to Kill Himself. |
"Thou art near, O Lord; and all Thy ways are truth."
(Ps. 118/151. )
"Everyone that is of the Truth heareth My Voice."
(John 18/37. )
When Christ said to Pilate, "I came into the world to give testimony to the TRUTH" he exclaimed―"What is the TRUTH?" but he did not wait for the ever-ready answer of Christ―"I am the TRUTH." Pilate, eager to stand well before men, and for that ideal, willing to sacrifice the one thing that was for his peace, squandered TRUTH for self. TRUTH had not entered into his calculations. He had always looked out for his own interest, irrespective of all else. Everything was waived aside to safeguard his position. How many are those who through the ages have, like Pilate, bartered this priceless gift of TRUTH, for the unstable things of time.
