The Jews asked Jesus by what authority He was healing and speaking about the Kingdom of God. Jesus knew it was a trap. If he said he had Divine power, they would have killed him. If he said by human authority, they would have charged him not pledging allegiance to the one true God. Knowing that they were setting him up, Jesus replied with a question about John the Baptist that they could not answer.
At the Last Supper, Jesus says, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” Jn 14:6
Today, Jesus is asking you a question. Who do you say that I am? Do you believe with your whole heart, mind, body, and soul? Do you trust God or yourself? If Jesus says He is who He says He is, we better start putting Him first.
Christian YOLO!
