NOTES

Who are you, Lord, that I might seek to know you? Who are you, Lord, that I might long to love you? Who are you, Lord, that I might dare to follow you? Jesus's evocative question to the disciples at Caesarea Philippi, "Who do you say that I AM?" elicits a bold Christological confession from Simon Peter, "You are the Messiah, the Son of the Living God." Divinely revealed, Simon's assertive testimony sets in motion the center and the witness of Christian faith. Jesus's direct question posed to the disciples reverberates even now as it probes the hearts and minds of all believers and nonbelievers. "Who do you say that I AM?" "Who Do You Say that I AM?" explores the mystery of Jesus of Nazareth through an examination of salient divine names used of him as revealed in Scripture. These titular clues will serve to broaden the reader's understanding of this Jesus "whom even the wind and sea obey." It is the author's hope that its readers will discover the profound meaning of Jesus's question in their own lives and dare to answer the saving question, "Who do you say that the Son of Man is?"
