On today's “Knowing The Truth” Radio Program, my special guest will be Dr. Andreas Kostenberger. During the program we will discuss Dr. Kostenberger's book “Whatever Happened to Truth?” In the book, which also includes chapters written by three other authors (R. Albert Mohler, J.P. Moreland and Kevin J. Vanhoozer), Dr. Kostenberger addresses Pilate's well-known question to Jesus in John 18:38 “What is truth?”. In this section, he looks the use of the word truth throughout the Scriptures and then focuses on the three main characters mentioned during the trial of Jesus; the Jewish Leaders, Pilate and Jesus Himself.
The Jewish leaders are shown to bear the primary responsibility for the crucifixion of Christ, while Pilate is found to be the perennial reminder of the impossibility of maintaining neurtrality in the face of truth. Jesus, despite the crucifixion, “has in fact not yielded anything, has ultimately lost nothing, and gained everything” as he served as a witness to God's truth before his Roman interrogators.
Andreas J. Köstenberger is director of PhD Studies and professor of New Testament at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, North Carolina. He is a prolific author, distinguished evangelical scholar, and Editor of the Journal of the Evangelical Theological Society.
