Matthew 16 :13 & 15
Now when Jesus came into the district of Caesarea Philippi, He was asking His disciples, "Who do people say that the Son of Man is?"
He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?"
When Jesus came to Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples this simple but complex question, "Who do you say I am?". I personally feel that it is a challenging question for one to answer on the spot because the answer which we spout forth would reflect the true nature of who Jesus is to us.
The bible says that we will know a true prophet/believer if he proclaims that Jehovah is God and Jesus as the son of God and the only way we can save ourselves from sin is to accept and believe in Him.
There are many other compromised answers which the world say of who Jesus is. The Mormons answer this question by saying that Jesus is the spirit brother of Lucifer; Jehovah's Witnesses answer by saying that Jesus is the archangel Michael; New Agers say Jesus is an avatar or enlightened messenger.
As a born again Christian, who do you say that Jesus is in your life? Your answer would reveal if he is indeed on the throne of our life.
Today, may you be one of them who confess "Jesus, you are the Lord of my life, the son of the living God".
