Finding Truth That Holds
When Everything Else Falls Apart

"Truth has been on trial since Genesis 3.
The same witness is still on the stand."

A Book by

Douglas P. Reed

A compelling exploration of why Jesus is not merely a spiritual preference — but the most qualified witness to truth who ever lived. Written for believers who need their faith grounded, and seekers willing to examine the evidence.

"For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ."

1 Corinthians 3:11

Finding Truth That Holds When Everything Else Falls Apart

Douglas P. Reed

What happens when truth
is put on trial?

We live in a world that treats truth as optional — a matter of opinion, preference, or cultural convenience. But some things cannot be made optional. The foundation either holds or it doesn't. The Rock either is what it claims to be, or it isn't.

Built on the Rock is a 13-chapter journey through the most important question any person will ever face: Is Jesus who He said He was? Not as a matter of faith alone — but as a matter of evidence, testimony, and honest examination.

From the original courtroom in the Garden of Eden to Pilate's question that echoes through every generation, this book invites both the committed believer and the curious skeptic to take their seat as a juror. The witness has taken the stand. The testimony is before you.

Truth Has Been on Trial
Since the Beginning

A single unbroken thread runs through every page — from the Garden of Eden to the present day. You are the juror. The evidence is before you.

I

The Original Trial

The serpent's first question in Genesis 3 was not curiosity — it was cross-examination. "Did God really say?" has been the prosecution's argument ever since.

II

The Witness Takes the Stand

Jesus chose the word testify deliberately. He entered the courtroom not as judge but as the most qualified witness who has ever lived.

III

The Verdict Is Yours

Pilate asked his question and walked out before the testimony was finished. Every person who hears the testimony must decide what to do with it.

"My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" was not a cry of defeat. It was an announcement of completion — invoking Psalm 22, written a thousand years before crucifixion existed.

When Jesus quoted the opening line of Psalm 22 from the cross, He was using the rabbinical method of invoking the entire Psalm — a Psalm that describes the crucifixion in precise detail, and ends not in forsaking, but in triumph: He has done it.
