Are you then the Son of God? Jesus replied, “You say that I am."

Luke 22:47-62

While he was still speaking a crowd came up, and the man who was called Judas, one of the Twelve, was leading them. He approached Jesus to kiss him, but Jesus asked him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?"

Then Jesus said to the chief priests, the officers of the temple guard, and the elders, who had come for him, “Am I leading a rebellion, that you have come with swords and clubs? Every day I was with you in the temple courts, and you did not lay a hand on me. But this is your hour—when darkness reigns.”

Peter replied, “Man, I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Just as he was speaking, the rooster crowed. The Lord turned and looked straight at Peter. Then Peter remembered the word the Lord had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows today, you will disown me three times.” And he went outside and wept bitterly.

They all asked, “Are you then the Son of God? He replied, “You say that I am.” Then they said, “Why do we need any more testimony? We have heard it from his own lips.”

Why?

Judas came as Jesus said, he betrayed the Son of Man.

Jesus questioned the high priest and the officers of the temple guard, Am I leading a rebellion? No, Jesus brought blessing healing, and love to many needy people. They were no reason to come with swords and clubs.

This your hour- when darkness reigns. The Lord allows satan, darkness reigns at this moment. 

Before the rooster crows Peter denied Jesus three times as Jesus said. So Peter found he was weak and crowded, but he said he wouldn't deny Jesus even dead. This is the weakness of all of us. 

Jesus formally replied He is the Son of God, and this is truth, but all of those people didn't believe, No one can let the dead man come to life, and heal the blind...

How?

I believe Jesus is the Son of God, Jesus is my savior, and I will follow Jesus to preach the gospel and be a good witness in my life. May the Holy Spirit teach me to identify the truth and false talk. 

I am not better than Peter, if I had been there maybe I would have run away to other places. May the Lord help me not to meet temptation.
