And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” Matthew 8:28-29 “… there met Him two demon-possessed men, coming out of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so that no one could pass that way. And suddenly they cried out saying, “What have we to do with You, Jesus, You Son of God? Have You come here to torment us before the time?” Matthew 16:15-17 “He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven.”
