Who Do You Say That I Am? (Matthew 16:1-17) - Session 32

Two Jewish factions, the Pharisees and the Sadducees, ask Jesus for a sign as evidence that He is who He claims to be. They are only looking for evidence to trap Him. As always, He challenges their assumptions and undermines their motivations. 

Jesus also forces a decision from the disciples by asking them who He is. This question is a major turning point in the book of Matthew where Jesus hinges His message on the disciples’ view of His identity.  

• What was the false teachings of the Pharisees and Sadducees? 
• What do modern people say about Jesus' identity?
• What happens when the religious leaders try to box in Jesus by demanding evidence?
• Who do you say that Jesus is?
