Who is Jesus?


“When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?”
Matthew 16:13(KJV)   

Individuals have different perspectives of who Jesus Christ really is. When Jesus asked His disciples, whom do men say that I the son of man am? They said in Matthew 16:14, “…Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.”

Today, many people still do not have an accurate understanding and knowledge of who Jesus really is. They see Him as a great teacher or Rabbi, or as one of the greatest prophets who ever lived. But Peter speaking by revelation, (A revelation is a truth impacted to the human spirit without any sensory medium.) declared with certainty the truth about who Jesus really is.

So, in Matthew 16:16, Peter answered and said by revelation, “…Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.”  This is who Jesus is. He is the Son of God in truth. This is what is real to us. This is what we are sure of and we have no questions about it.

Seeing Jesus as the Christ, the Son of the living God is seeing Him from God's perspective of who He really is because that is what is revealed to us in the word of God.

CONFESSION
Father, I thank you for revealing to me from your Word the person of Jesus. I declare that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Living God. He is my Lord and Saviour.

For further study read: 
Matthew 14:33, Matthew 27:54, John 6:69, John 20:31,
I John 4:15..  

DOING THE WORD
 Turn from your sins and every other evil way and accept Jesus as the Christ and your Saviour; and by Him serve the true and living God.
