“He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?”
Matthew 16:15 (KJV)
Commentary on Matthew 16:15
Jesus personalizes the question: 'But whom say ye that I am?' The shift from 'men' to 'ye' demands personal commitment, not merely reporting others' opinions. Salvation requires personal faith in Christ, not secondhand religion. Reformed theology emphasizes that each person must individually trust Christ—there's no salvation by proxy or tradition. This question confronts every generation: intellectual acknowledgment of Christ's existence differs radically from personal faith in His lordship and deity.
