If you have read ahead and reviewed the Gospel for the Sunday after next, you will hear Jesus ask, “Who do people say that I am?”
Who do people say that you are?
It is an age-old question. We are often asking it in reference to ourselves, for our own limited reasons. Often because of fear and uncertainty.
But Jesus asked the question too. Why do you suppose he did so?
How will we answer it?
Who do people say Jesus is? Who do we say Jesus is?
Good question. Lets make sure we approach the answer from the position of discipleship, not willful self-assertion. Let’s get behind Jesus and follow.
