Who do you say Jesus is?


Matthew 11:2-11  Now when John heard in prison about the deeds of the Christ, he sent word by his disciples
3  and said to him, “Are you the one who is to come, or shall we look for another?”
4  And Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John what you hear and see:
5  the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.
6  And blessed is the one who is not offended by me.”
7  As they went away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds concerning John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind?
8.....
What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet.
10  This is he of whom it is written, “‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’
11  Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has arisen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

John 10:24-30  So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly.”
25  Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name bear witness about me, 
26  but you do not believe because you are not among my sheep. 
27  My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. 
28  I give them eternal life, and they will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. 
29  My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand. 

30  I and the Father are one.”
