Matthew 16:18-28 - A Chip off the Old Block - Part 1

Introduction

The Confession of Simon Peter (16:13-20)

1. Jesus questions the disciples (vv. 13-15) regarding the popular perceptions of his identity and then, specifically asks the disciples for their opinion by asking, “But who do you say that I am?”
2. Peter, acting as a spokesman for the group, made two historic assertions:
3. “You are the Christ”: The anointed Messiah of God (His mission)
4. “The Son of the Living God”: More than a prophet, He was the One and Only Son of God (His identity) and fulfillment of OT prophecies (Jn 6:68)
