Matthew
16:13-28 records a highlight in Matthew’s Gospel. It is here that Peter
confesses Jesus as the Christ, the Son of the Living God. If we are going to
walk with Jesus, it’s imperative that we know who He is. And once we recognize
who He is, we are in a better position to understand who we are. Please pray
with your church family as we prepare for worship on Sunday morning.
