Thy Word Is A Lamp Unto My Feet



Who Do You Say Jesus Is?

Jesus asked his disciples:

“Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?”
…Simon Peter answered and said,
‘You are the Christ (Messiah),
the Son of the living God.’
Jesus answered and said to him,
‘Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah,
for flesh and blood has not REVEALED this to you,
but my Father who is in heaven.’”
Matthew 16:13-17

Some say that Jesus built his church upon Peter. But think about it, does that even make sense? Would Jesus build his church upon a man? Of course not. Scripture tells us that JESUS is the foundation.

“For NO OTHER foundation can anyone lay
than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.”
1st Corinthians 3:11

It’s vitally important to understand this – Jesus built his church upon the REVELATION that he is the Christ, the Messiah, the Son of the living God.

The entire Bible is the story of the provision God made for man’s salvation through Jesus Christ who took upon himself the judgment due our sins – for each one who believes in him. It’s all about Jesus Christ; it’s all about the atonement he accomplished to save us.

You can know all about Jesus, but not know him. Many read the Bible but never understand it. To be able to understand and receive it one must be born again. When one is born again, the Spirit of God continuously reveals more and more throughout the person’s life. It is alive to that person.

ASK the Lord to REVEAL himself to you. ASK for the born-again transformation, and he will give you a whole new life.

“If you then, being evil, know how
to give good gifts to your children,
how much more will your heavenly Father
give the Holy Spirit to those who ASK Him!”
Luke 11:13
