Mark

Mark 8:27–29

²⁷Then Jesus and His disciples went on to the villages around Caesarea Philippi. On the way, He questioned His disciples: “Who do people say I am?”

²⁸They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets.”

²⁹“But what about you?” Jesus asked. “Who do you say I am?”

Peter answered, “You are the Christ.”
