11 - Two Questions for You

I have two questions for you today. And the second of the
two is the most important question you will ever be asked,
and the answer you give to it will be the most important
answer you will ever give to any question. And if you
choose not to answer, if you refuse to answer, if you say
you don't know the answer – then you have answered it
already!
Two questions, I say. They are not my questions, I
hasten to add. They are two questions which the Lord
Jesus Christ asked the people who were following him
when he was here on earth. And Jesus asks you these same
questions today. He asks you now. And he wants your
answer. Now!
Let me tell you what the two questions are. You will
find them in Matthew 16:13-17. The Lord Jesus, referring
to himself as 'the Son of Man', asks:
1: 'Who do people say the Son of Man is?'
2: 'But what about you? Who do you say I am?'
