Who is Jesus? This was the very question that Christ asked of Peter. “But whom say Ye that I am?”

There are many ideas about who Jesus is. Some say he was a teacher, a moral man, or a miracle worker or even a prophet. But Christ is more than all of these because Jesus is the Lord!

Peter’s response was two fold He said, “Thou art the Christ” - The term “the Christ” meant the Messiah, the anointed of God. Peter showed his faith that Jesus was the long expected Messiah that would take away the sins of the world.

Then He stated, “The son of the Living God.” He expressed full belief that He was deity. Essentially he said, “Jesus you are Lord!”

Yet, the important question is not what did Peter say, but what do you say? Peter gave the right answer but what is your response to Christ’s question?
