Following Jesus WHO??? (WISE 1)

In Mark 8:27, Jesus asked a question “Who do people say I am?”

In Mark 8:28 - The disciple replied. "Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets."

In Mark 8:29, Jesus asked a 2nd question “But what about you?” “Who do you say I am?”
In the 2nd question, Jesus turned the reply around and demanded a deeper, internalized and personal reply.

The KEY question in the Bible keeps asking is, “WHO is the Jesus you are following?”
To get our “following” right, we need to get Jesus right.

"But what about you?” “Who do you say I am?”

It is a question we must have a reply to or try to have a reply.
