In Front | Unlikely Location for a New Testament Inscription

Lesson Progress
0% Complete

The CIA Headquarters building has this inscription on its lobby wall: 

And Ye Shall Know the Truth and the Truth Shall Make You Free—John 8:32. 

You might also find it unlikely that this is the Agency motto. 

Allen Dulles, the longest-serving Director of Central Intelligence, who was serving at the time of the building’s dedication, quoted this verse in his dedication ceremony speech. Dulles was the son of a Presbyterian minister and insisted on adding the inscription. The CIA Headquarters Building no longer functions as the CIA headquarters.
