There is a right opinion to have about Jesus that will bring you freedom and there is a wrong opinion that will keep you locked in your chains. Peter got it. The church has it, so there is freedom and once we lose this truth like Peter did, we are in the hands of the enemy. If you are are not believing that you are counted righteous, not only the forgiveness of your sins but also possessing the righteousness of Jesus then you will not enjoy your salvation.
Who do you say I am, Jesus asked.
Dig deep into the scripture. Jesus is the shepherd. You are looking for guidance, be a sheep. Believe that He will lead you!
Ah, little children, he is your friend. Yea a friend of sinners and your older brother. He won't discard you. He won't discourage you. Even if you are faithless, He is faithful. I am reminded of an old woman who had nothing but bread and water for dinner. She did not grumble but praised God and said, 'thank you, father, for your provision and this is enough for me because I have Jesus, my soul is satisfied'.
Is Jesus enough for you?
Is He all-sufficient?
She had the right opinion of Jesus and it brought her contentment. Ah, troubled saint, you can sleep well on the raging sea, you can rest until sunrise. Fear not!
Little children fear not! Jesus is your friend and I have never seen nor heard of Him forsaking any that came to him.
