What Say You?

Who Do You Say Jesus Is?

My faith is the most important aspect of my life. At age twenty-one, I accepted God’s provision for my sin debt and made Jesus Christ the Lord and Savior of my life and soul. From that point on, I have never looked back nor have I ever regretted my decision. Jesus is my Redeemer.

 

One of my favorite episodes in the Bible is found in Mark 8. Jesus asked his disciples a very important question–“Who do men say that I am?”

 

The disciples gave various answers, “Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah, and some say you are one of the prophets”.

 

Jesus then asked the most important question, “But who do you say that I am?”

 

What a great question! What a great way to make it personal. Jesus is not interested in hearing our theology of –anything–, he wants to know what you think, what you believe.

 

Who do you say Jesus is?

That’s a personal question; one that is answered in your heart—in the deepest part of your being. It’s an answer that, no matter what your words say to others, your answer will be known at the end of time (at the end of your time here on earth).

 

Who do you say Jesus is?

Peter answered the Lord rightly when he said, “Thou art the Christ”. The Bible says he is the Son of God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace, The Bright and Morning Star, The Lion of Judah and The Lamb of God; He is the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. He has been given a name above all names, and that all will eventually bow before him. His name is Jesus, the only begotten of the Heavenly Father. He is our Mediator, the Rock of our Salvation, and the propitiation for our sins.

Jesus said of Himself, “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life; no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”

 

Who do you say Jesus is?

 

Mark 8:34 says that Jesus called his disciples and the people who were with them together, and said, “Whosoever will come after me, let him take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever shall save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel’s, the same shall save it. For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?”
