John 18: Concerning Truth

When Jesus is talking to Pilate he says something really significant. (It even gets mentioned later in the epistles.) Jesus says: "for this I have come into the world, to testify to the truth." Jesus came to testify to the truth. But what did he mean exactly? I think this is really important, because Jesus is revealing to Pilate the reason for which he was sent to this earth. In reply to this statement, Pilate asks "what is truth?" And whether or not he was being sarcastic, I think it's a good question.
A good definition of truth is "a correct view of reality". When Jesus said he came to testify to the truth he meant he came to help man see through the eyes of God instead of those of us, sinners. The world has created it's own version of truth. It's truth says that there are many ways to heaven, that there is not necessarily an absolute wrong or right, that you should just let everyone do what they believe is right and that everything will work out okay. It has been like this ever since Adam and Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden. The world is insane; that is, it has an incorrect view of reality. One tainted be sin, which when you think about it is based totally around lies (this won't hurt me, nobody's going to notice if I take this, etc.)
Jesus came to show us the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth (the real truth!). ;) He came to show us how we should live, how it was meant to be. God knew how devastating sin was, and wanted to show us the way out. Jesus said he was "the way, the truth and the life", and now maybe that verse makes a little more sense, maybe not. I just thought this was an important message. Jesus came into this world to testify to the truth, and to extinguish the lie.
