Who do you say that I am ?
Jesus is inviting us to respond to the main question that every Gospel writer is trying to answer. Who is Jesus? By answering this question, we are answering the question of the identity of every believer. Pope francis reminds us that: “the same identity card of a Christian should be the same in all respects as that of Jesus. And the Cross is what we have in common and what saves us.” For Pope Francis, “if each one of us is not willing to die with Jesus, to be raised with him, we do not yet have a true Christian identity”. Jesus is the Messiah, the anointed one of God. His way of life must become ours.
All heavenly powers, pray for us!
