He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven.” (Matthew 16:15-17)
Peter acknowledges that Jesus is the promised Messiah... the Anointed One... the Son of the Living God.
Not a dead god. Not some idol. No... Jesus is the Son of The Most High God. There is no one else like him!
Jesus is not simply a noble man to be admired, a good teacher to learn from, or a prophet sent by God, but Jesus is the Messiah that God promised to send and He is the Son of the One and only true God.
Recognize who Jesus is today, and let this world know that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God.
