#205 - The Power of Truth and the Tragedy of Pilate’s Decision - John 18.38-19-16a

In this episode of the AL Pastor Podcast, we journey through John 18:38–19:16 as Pilate wrestles with the truth standing right before him—Jesus Christ, the King of kings. As the Roman governor tries to evade making a decision, we witness his tragic compromise, choosing political expediency over eternal truth. Join us as we explore the sobering reality of Pilate’s moral crisis, the venomous rejection of Jesus by the Jewish leaders, and the heartbreaking cry of the crowd, “We have no king but Caesar!” This passage challenges us to confront our own response to Christ. Will we, like Pilate, bend under pressure and choose safety over truth? Or will we stand firm and proclaim, “We have no King but Jesus”?

Listen in as we unpack these verses, reflecting on the power of truth, the cost of discipleship, and what it truly means to follow the King of a kingdom not of this world.
