Luke 9:18-20
18 And it happened, as He was alone praying, that His disciples joined Him, and He asked them, saying, “Who do the crowds say that I am?” 19 So they answered and said, “John the Baptist, but some say Elijah; and others say that one of the old prophets has risen again.” 20 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered and said, “The Christ of God.”
What matters above all else is that we have to see clearly who Jesus is. If He is just a prophet as Islam says, or just a good man or teacher as many others would like to believe, then we are still in God's justice to be judged and fairly sentenced. If however we see Him as the one from God among us, chosen before time to call us out as only God can, then we can find the certain hope for reconciliation in unearned mercy, forgiveness, and hope forever.
