Brian Godawa Quote

Jesus said to those around him, Who do people say that the Son of Man is? Peter blurted out, Some say John the Baptist come back from the dead. John spoke up, Some say you are Elijah from heaven. Simon added, It seems the masses have imagined you being the return of just about every prophet from our Scriptures. Jesus looked around at them with a somber face. But who do you say that I am? The disciples glanced at each other sheepishly. As usual, Peter was the first to respond. You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God. Jesus smiled. Blessed are you, Simon bar Jonah. For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.
