Summary: After we believe in Jesus and decide to repent, we need to share this news with other people. This is called confession. In verse 9 of our Bible Reading, Paul says, <em>If you openly say, Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from death, you will be saved.</em><br> One time Jesus was with His disciples. In Matthew 16:15, He asked them, <em>...who do you say I am?</em> In the next verse, we read Peters answer: <em>You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.</em> Peter confessed that He believed that Jesus was the Son of God.<br> When we tell other people that we believe in Jesus, it is part of our promise to continue following Him. It is also a way to identify with other Christians so they can encourage us to stay close to Jesus.<br> Dont be afraid to tell other people that you believe in Jesus. Your confession may encourage them to obey and follow Jesus, too.
