The Apostle Peter is the great example of a true confessor of Jesus Christ. In Matthew 16:16, in answer to Jesus' question to his disciples as to who people were saying he was, Peter declared, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."
On another occasion in John 6, after many of the followers of Jesus were deserting him, Jesus asked his disciples if they, too, would leave him. Peter answered, "Lord, to whom shall be go? You have the words of eternal life, and we have believed, and come to know that you are the Holy One of God" (John 6:69).
This bold declaration and confession of Jesus as the Christ, the Son of God, marked Peter's preaching as he led the early church in the same confession of Jesus .
Peter's untiring confession of the Lordship of Christ led to his own martyrdom. Likewise many true confessors of Jesus are suffering for their loyalty to declare the truth today.
In a world in desperate need of hearing the Gospel, may we likewise not be hesitant to declare and confess that "Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God."
