There are many conversations about Jesus — opinions, assumptions, and competing claims. But in Matthew 16:13–17, Jesus did not ask His disciples what others were saying. He asked them directly: “But who do you say that I am?”
In this episode, we walk through that passage carefully and let Scripture interpret Scripture. We examine Peter’s confession that Jesus is “the Christ, the Son of the living God,” and we follow how the Bible defines those truths — from the Spirit’s role in revealing Christ (John 16:13–14; John 15:26), to the testimony of Scripture that Jesus is Creator and Sustainer (Colossians 1:15–17).
We also consider why this question is not secondary. Jesus warned that unbelief leaves a person in sin (John 8:24), and Paul taught that salvation involves believing and confessing Jesus as Lord (Romans 10:9–10).
Throughout the episode, we are invited to examine where our understanding of Jesus comes from and whether our response aligns with what God has said.
The question remains personal — and it still stands today:
