     | 274 views

    The people in Jesus’ day had various perception of who He was, but Peter the disciple of Jesus truly understood who Jesus was. The important question we need to ask ourselves is, “Who is Jesus to us personally?” The answer to this is vital both for now and for eternity.

    We read in Matthew 16:13, Now after coming into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus questioned His disciples, saying, "Who do men declare Me, the Son of man, to be?" (AFV) The above was the question that Jesus asked His disciples. Jesus had performed so many miraculous signs and ...read more

    The Christian life is not a spectator sport. We are not called to sit back, to be passive, or to simply admire what Christ has done. We are called to be His hands and feet in a broken world. We are called to move — to live out our salvation in acts of love, service, and obedience.

Hallelujah!” it declared in words printed under a picture of a fire burning. The bishop was also interested in the sign directly ...read more
