Lent 2015 March 3 by ric Gustafson
In Luke 9:20, Jesus asks Peter ' Who do you say that I am?'. Peter replies ' The Christ sent from God".
Jesus is the Christ. The name Christ comes from the Greek word Christos and means ' anointed one'.
Jesus claimed to be the Christ and was condemned to die. His accusers wanted a Jewish King who would overthrow political powers. Instead Jesus came to overthrow the powers of evil. Jesus came to end the rule of sin once and for all.
Jesus is the only route to salvation and eternal life. Jesus Christ is the Messiah.
