Matthew 16:13-17 When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?… What did Christ teach concerning Himself? 1. He affirmed the divinity of His redemptive mission. 2. His independence of, and separation from, the world. 3. His pre-existence. 4. Some of the affirmations of Christ contain most impressive representations of His character and work — "I am the Bread of Life," "I am the Light of the World," "I am the Door," "I am the True Vine." 5. Some of the affirmations of our Lord contain wondrous glimpses of His grace and glory. 6. His second coming in great glory. (G. W. McCree.)
