The Confession at Caesarea Philippi

Who is Jesus? This is an age-old question that many have asked, providing a variety of answers and ideas, many quite odd and astounding. This question is so important that Jesus asked His disciples what people said about who He was. Matthew 16 records this exchange between Jesus and His disciples, and we get a glimpse into a pivotal moment that Jesus has with Peter. In this lesson, Dr. Thomas explores who Jesus is according to Himself, according to man, and according to Peter. The most important question you can ever ask is “Who is Jesus?” Even more important is believing the truth about who Jesus is.
