2 Mark 8 27 Jesus and his disciples went on to the villages around Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked them, “Who do people say I am?” 28 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets.”

3 Mark 8 29 “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?”
Peter answered, “You are the Messiah.” 30 Jesus warned them not to tell anyone about him.

4 ”Who do you say I am?”

5 Jesus is a DECENT FELLOW
Daniel 7:13 “In my vision at night I looked, and there before me was one like a son of man, o coming with the clouds of heaven. He approached the Ancient of Days and was led into his presence. 14 He was given authority, glory and sovereign power; all nations and peoples of every language worshiped him. His dominion is an everlasting dominion that will not pass away, and his kingdom is one that will never be destroyed.

6 Jesus is a DECENT FELLOW
John 6:35 Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. John 8:12 When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. John 8:58 “Very truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “before Abraham was born, I am!” 59 At this, they picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus hid himself, slipping away from the temple grounds.

7 Jesus is a Decent Fellow Jesus is a DEMENTED FOOL

8 Jesus is a DEMENTED FOOL
Max Lucado says, “When lunatics attract a following, they create other lunatics. Hitler created disciples of death. Stalin turned people into power addicts. But Jesus made them better. People didn’t just like Jesus. They loved him. They left their homes and their businesses to follow him. Impulsive people like Peter, studious people like Thomas, methodical people like Matthew, visionary people like Phillip.

9 Jesus is a DEMENTED FOOL
Prostitutes to philanthropists, from one extreme to the other, he inspired people. They were the better for being with him. He took common net casters and dock workers and turned them into the authors of history’s greatest book and the founders of history’s greatest movement.”

10 Jesus is a Decent Fellow Jesus is a Demented Fool Jesus is a DECEIVING FRAUD

11 Jesus is a DECEIVING FRAUD
Around 120 A.D., a historian named Quadratus wrote to Emperor Hadrian, “The works of our savior were lasting for they were genuine. Those who were healed and those who were raised from the dead were seen not merely while our saviour was on earth, but also after his death they were alive quite a while so that some of them lived even to our day.”

12 Jesus is a DECEIVING FRAUD
Max Lucado says, “One of the greatest testimonies to the veracity of the truth of Jesus Christ is the historically documented explosion of the New Testament church. If there had been no one to give testimony to the miracles of Christ, the early church would have died a stillborn death. A fraud couldn’t have pulled off all those genuine miracles. And, he couldn’t have done those remarkable things with the love that he showed while doing them.”

13 Who do you say JESUS is? A Decent Fellow A Demented Fool
A Deceiving Fraud Or our DIVINE FRIEND?
