Bible Question: In Caesarea-Philippi peter made a great confession and I would like to know what it was as I'm not sure if it was his confession of denying Jesus 3 times or confessing to thomas that he believed that Jesus had risen. |
Bible Answer: Hello sistergirl Neither of these is the confession, rather it's his acknowledgement of who the Lord Jesus Christ truly was--the Christ (the Messiah who was promised) and the Son of God (who is in Himself all that God is; total equality with God, therefore He must be God). Steve |
