Peter’s Confession of the Messiah

18 While He was praying in private(A) and His disciples were with Him, He asked them, “Who do the crowds say that I am?”
19 They answered, “John the Baptist; others, Elijah; still others, that one of the ancient prophets has come back.”(a)(B)
20 “But you,” He asked them, “who do you say that I am?”

Peter answered, “God’s Messiah!”(C)
