(27) And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and by the way he asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do men say that I am? (28) And they answered John the Baptist: but some say, Elias; and others, One of the prophets. (29) And he saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am? and Peter answereth and saith unto him, Thou art the Christ. (30) And he charged them that they should tell no man of him.

We never can be sufficiently thankful to the LORD for putting this question to his disciples. Neither can we too highly prize that grace the LORD gave Peter in the answer. Oh! for the same divine teaching, whereby alone the knowledge he had is attainable. See Matthew 16:13, etc.
