- " He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" (Matthew 16:15)

A Slice of Infinity snippets: "When the intent is right and the mirror is the word of God in its historical context, the revelation that true beauty lies in Christ alone will only drive us ever closer to the restoration of our own beauty in Him. Such an encounter with our Creator is not to be found amidst the cacophony of noises within the factory of dedicated god-crafters; it is best seen when nothing obscures our view of the Cross."

Chad's comments: Reading on in Matthew 16, we find the following continuation of the dialogue between Peter and Jesus, "Simon Peter replied, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." And Jesus answered him, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. It is somewhat difficult for me as I conclude that simply giving my friends and family books about God will not cause them to believe. As Jesus told Peter, 'flesh and blood has not revealed this to you'. I encourage you to continue lifting up the unchristian in your life through prayer.
