He was brutally cru-cified on the cross, after being turned over to a mob of his Jewish persecutors, for purely political reasons. Pontius Pilate, the local rep-resentative of the Roman gov-ernment, made the final deci-sion. "I find no fault in Him," Pilate said, "but whom shall I release unto you, Barabbas or Jesus that is called Christ?" And the multitude screamed "Release Barabbas and give us Jesus to be crucified." Then Pilate asked, "What is truth?" and called for water that he might wash his hands of the whole tragic affair. All of the above transpired almost 2,000 years ago. Ever since that time men in high political, social and governmen-tal positions have been asking Pilate's question, "What is truth?" They are inwardly asking themselves the questions : "Shall I do the right thing or the expedient thing? Shall I do the right thing or the thing that will get me the most votes next election day? Shall I do the honorable thing or the thing that will fill my pockets with unearned monetary gain?" During the short earthly min-istry of the Savior, he spent the most of his time and energy preaching the Golden Rule "That whatsoever ye would that men should do unto you, do ye evenso unto them." To the rich young man, who wanted to insure himself a se-cure place in heaven, Jesus said, "Go, sell all that you have and give to the poor and come and follow me." Unfortunately the young man was not seeking that kind of "truth." I suppose that most of the troubles assailing mankind at this moment are due to our failure to obey the teachigns of the Christ. Inflation, riots, strikes, corruption in public of-fice, all stem from man's self-ishness and disregard for the fundamentals of social equality Eastertime is a period of new birth, symbolized by the rise of the Christ from the tomb. The day can pass as just another Sunday. Far better it could be a day of meditation and stock tak-ing of our own personal lives, ideals and activities. All is not well with the world in which we live. What can we do, individually, to make it better? Perhaps we should all strive a little harder to answer Pil-ate's question, "What is truth?" In speaking to a group of Jews, who believed in him, Jesus said, "And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." However, to know the truth is only the first step in becom-ing truly free. The second step is to do something about it. So long 'til Thursday.
