Question – Jesus, 29

~  Regarding Discernment ~

Introduction  ~  This series is about questions involving Jesus.  Some were asked by individuals involved with Jesus Christ while He walked on earth.  Others are questions that Jesus Christ asked others.  We will look at questions on about 130 topics (some may split into two or more posts).  Even so, it is far from an exhaustive list. 

Scripture  ~  “Now Jesus and His disciples went out to the towns of Caesarea Philippi; and on the road He asked His disciples, saying to them, ‘Who do men say that I am?’  So they answered, ‘John the Baptist; but some say, Elijah; and others, one of the prophets.’  He said to them, ‘But who do you say that I am?’  Peter answered and said to Him, ‘You are the Christ.’  Then He strictly warned them that they should tell no one about Him” (Mark 8:27-30).

“And it happened, as He was alone praying, that His disciples joined Him, and He asked them, saying, ‘Who do the crowds say that I am?’  So they answered and said, ‘John the Baptist, but some say Elijah; and others say that one of the old prophets has risen again.’  He said to them, ‘But who do you say that I am?’  Peter answered and said, ‘The Christ of God’” (Luke 9:18-20). 

Comment  ~  “But who do you say that I am?  This is the most important question for every living human being.  So, I ask you, “Who do YOU say that Jesus is?”  If you do not answer it at all, or if you answer it incorrectly, you have made the biggest mistake anyone can make!
