A Right Confession of Jesus

Speaker: Jason Whitley Series: The Gospel According to Mark Scripture: Mark 8:27–38

At this point in His public preaching ministry, His listeners have to make choice. They must answer the following questions as there is no neutrality in this topic.

  • Who is Jesus?
  • What does Jesus demand of us?

Beyond this point, and into the second half of Jesus’s ministry on earth, we see fewer parables, more private time with His disciples, and more prediction of His suffering and coming death. 

Four Aspects of a Right Confession of Jesus as Lord

  1. To rightly confess Jesus as the Christ is a work of God.
  2. To rightly confess Jesus as the Christ is to embrace all that He is.
  3. To rightly confess Jesus as the Christ is to walk the path of suffering.
  4. To rightly confess Jesus as the Christ is to forfeit the world’s favor.
