Jesus as the Messiah, the Son of the Living God.
The sermon centers on Peter’s confession of Jesus in Matthew 16:13–20: “You are the Messiah, the Son of the Living God.” The preacher emphasizes that this is the turning point of Matthew’s Gospel, revealing who Jesus truly is before His journey to the cross.
“Know Jesus, Trust Jesus, Share Jesus.”
Know Jesus – He is not merely a great teacher or prophet, but the Messiah and the Son of the Living God.
Trust Jesus – He alone opens the way into God’s Kingdom through His death and resurrection.
Share Jesus – As followers of Christ, we have been entrusted with the gospel and are called to help others come to know Him.
“Jesus is the Messiah and Son of God; through Him alone we are saved, and through His gospel we invite others into God’s Kingdom.”
