This two-part message compares the world’s religions and asks what makes Christianity different, then presses into the question Pilate once asked Jesus: “What is truth?” Part one surveys competing religious claims about God, sets them against the Bible’s diagnosis that all have sinned and fall short of God’s glory, and shows that only in Christ’s incarnation, sinless life, substitutionary death, and resurrection is there a genuine answer to humanity’s real problem, sin, salvation by grace through faith and not by human effort.
Part two follows Jesus’ own claim to be “the way, the truth, and the life” and traces what Scripture says truth is: objective, absolute, and freeing, culminating in the truth of who Jesus is, the Word who became flesh, “full of grace and truth.” Together the two messages call listeners to test every religious claim against Christ, the one true way to God.
