"But who do you say that I am?"

Mark 8:27-33

And Jesus went on with his disciples, to the villages of Caesarea Philippi; and on the way he asked his disciples, "Who do men say that I am?" And they told him, "John the Baptist; and others say, Elijah; and others one of the prophets." And he asked them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered him, "You are the Christ." And he charged them to tell no one about him. And he began to teach them that the Son of man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again. And he said this plainly. And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him. But turning and seeing his disciples, he rebuked Peter, and said, "Get behind me, Satan! For you are not on the side of God, but of men."

Kon pangutan’on kita kuman kon sin’o si Jesus para dato, amo ra ‘sab seguro kita gihapon kan Peter na madali ra kita makatubag na Sija an Christ, Messiah of the Living God.


Pero parehas ra ‘sab gihapon seguro kita kan Peter na kon sultihan ni Jesus nan kamatuoran na magsagubang Sija nan pag-antos, na dili Sija dawaton nan mga chief priest sanan mga scribe, na pat’jon Sija, na pagkatapos, pag-abot nan tuyo ka adlaw mabanhaw Sija, dili kita 'sab motuo kan Christ parehas kan Peter.


Usahay dili ‘sab kita makatuo na sa ato mga kinabuhi, may mga pag-antos sanan mga pasakit ’sab kita na isugakod, mga problema na parte nan ato mga kinabuhi para segurado na motawag kita sanan mosangpit kan God, hinungdan na mapasuod kita Dija.


Amo na kinahanglan 'sab na ipangaliya nato kan Jesus na tabangan kita Nija na mamahimo kita na mga tinood na tagasunod Nija sa Ija mga kasuguan.

"Lord Jesus, I profess and believe that you are the Christ, the Son of the living God. You are my Lord and my Savior. Make my faith strong and help me to live in the victory of the cross by rejecting sin and by accepting your will."
