Who Do You Say that I Am?
Jesus asked his disciples a question that still confronts every heart today; “Who do you say that I am?” Many in that time thought he was a prophet, a teacher, even a ghost of John the Baptist, but Peter declared the truth that changes everything. “You are the Christ of God.” In that confession lies the foundation of salvation, the hope of eternity, and the calling of every believer. We must know who Jesus truly is, not as the world imagines him, but as Scripture reveals him. He is the Son of God, the Savior who came to take away the sins of the world.
This truth calls us to live differently. When we know who Jesus is, we find courage to face trials, compassion to love others, and faith to trust God’s plan even when it leads through suffering. Jesus was not a political liberator or a temporary fix. He came to bring a spiritual revolution, to die and rise again so that we might live. So I ask you, as Jesus asked His followers, who do you say that He is? May our answer be firm and faithful. Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God.
