Mark 8:27-30

Peter Declares That Jesus Is the Messiah 27Jesus and his disciples went on to the villages around Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked them, “Who do people say I am?”

28They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets.”

29“But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?” Peter answered, “You are the Messiah.”

30Jesus warned them not to tell anyone about him.
