Jesus looked at him and said,&nbsp;\u201cYou are Simon the son of&nbsp;John.

You are the&nbsp;King of Israel!\u201d&nbsp;Jesus answered him,&nbsp;\u201cBecause I said to you, \u2018I saw you under the fig tree,\u2019 do you believe? You will see greater things than these.\u201d And he said to him,&nbsp;\u201cTruly, truly, I say to you,&nbsp;&nbsp;you will see&nbsp;heaven opened, and&nbsp;the angels of God ascending and descending on&nbsp;the Son of Man.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#f2f2f2;font-size:12px\">Scripture quotations are from the ESV\u00ae Bible (The Holy Bible, English Standard Version\u00ae), copyright \u00a9 2001 by Crossway, a publishing ministry of Good News Publishers.

One of his most well-known questions was posed to the disciples when they traveled to Caesarea Philippi. There, surrounded by idol worship of all kinds, Jesus asked, \u201cWho do people say that I am? (Matt. 16:13). He quickly follows it up with another question directed to each of the disciples, \u201cBut who do <em>you<\/em> say that I am? (Matt. 16:15 \u2013 emphasis mine).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While this is a question each of us must answer for ourselves, Scripture provides a clear answer in today\u2019s reading. In the opening verses of his gospel, John reveals who Jesus is and where Jesus came from.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The term, \u201cWord\u201d in the original language is <em>logos<\/em>. In the Greek mindset and worldview, <em>logos<\/em> referred to the power behind all things (i.e. the divine). John used a term familiar to his audience to help clarify who Jesus is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jesus is the divine. He is the eternal \u201cWord\u201d of God (vv. 1\u20132) who \u201cbecame flesh and dwelt among us\u201d (v. 14). John emphasizes that when you see Jesus, you are seeing God; when you hear Jesus, you are hearing God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because Jesus is God, he is worthy of our worship and of a life surrendered to his lordship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em><strong><em><span style=\"color: #000000;\" class=\"stk-highlight\"><strong>Who do <em>you<\/em> say that Jesus is?
