Summary: Matthew 16:13-28 is the text for this message. Five lessons taken from this passage are: 1. Christ is still the Deliverer, 2. The Church of Jesus Christ will prevail, 3. We must carefully guard our motives. Peter's zeal was self-serving. Godly zeal brings self-denial. 4. Cross Bearing and Self-denial are not outdated concepts, 5. In self-sacrifice it creates boldness that mystifies the world.
