Peter Confesses Jesus Is the Christ

^27 (A)And Jesus went out, along with His disciples, to the villages of ^(B)Caesarea Philippi; and on the way He was asking His disciples, saying to them, “Who do people say that I am?” ^28 (C)And they told Him, saying, “John the Baptist; and others say Elijah; but others, one of the prophets.” ²⁹ And He continued asking them, “But who do you say that I am?” ^(D)Peter *answered and *said to Him, “You are the ^[a]Christ.” ³⁰ And ^(E)He ^[b]warned them to tell no one about Him.

^31 (F)And He began to teach them that ^(G)the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders and the chief priests and the scribes, and be killed, and after three days rise again. ³² And He was stating the matter ^(H)openly. And Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him. ³³ But turning around and seeing His disciples, He rebuked Peter and *said, “Get behind Me, ^(I)Satan! For you are not setting your mind on ^[c]God’s interests, but man’s.”
