Mark 8: 27-30; Peter's Confession of Christ

Grace and peace to you from our Lord Jesus Christ.

Who do we say Jesus is? To some Jesus is a historical figure who had nice things to say, and managed to do nice things for some people. To some Jesus is someone we should look to merely as an example for how to live our lives. To others Jesus is a questionable figure who may not have even existed. Who is Jesus to us? Is Jesus just someone who said some nice things, or are we going to follow Peter's example and call Jesus the Christ the Son of the living God? Calling Jesus Lord might offend someone else. Calling Jesus Lord may cause others to reject, and maybe even persecute, us. Calling Jesus Lord can have some negative consequences for us. Are we going to let that stop us? Despite the consequences are we going to stand up and confess Jesus as Lord and Savior. Jesus is, in fact, our Lord and Savior. Are we going to confess him as such. God bless you.
