Imagine what it must have been like for the first followers of Jesus to see him in action.

Healing the sick. Casting out demons. Multiplying bread and fish. Calming storms. Walking on water. Raising the dead.

What would it have been like to see those things live?

Now, imagine, after one of those events (let’s say the feeding of the 4,000), you are just getting over the shock when Jesus turns to you and asks, “What does all of this mean?”

Would you have dared to answer? Jesus had a way of asking tough questions.

This week, we are going to be in Matthew 16, in which Jesus asks his most difficult, but most important question: Who do you say that I am?

What would you say?

See you on Sunday.
