Matthew 16:13-17; Philippians 2:5-11; I Corinthians 15:3-8,51,52

READER: When Yeshua came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, "Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?"

CONGREGATION: So they said, "Some say John the Immerser, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets."

READER: He said to them, "But who do you say I am?"

CONGREGATION: And Simon Peter answered and said, "You are the Messiah the Son of Living God."

READER: Yeshua 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."

CONGREGATION: Let this mind be in you which was also in Messiah Yeshua, who being in the form of God did not consider it robbery to be equal with God,

READER: but made himself of no reputation, taking the form of a servant, and coming in the likeness of men.

CONGREGATION: And being found in the appearance as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient to death; even the death of the cross.

READER: Therefore God also highly exalted him, and gave him a name which is above every name.

CONGREGATION: . That at the name of Yeshua, every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those in the earth and of those under the earth,

READER: and that every tongue should confess that Yeshua Messiah is Lord to the glory of God the Father.

CONGREGATION: For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received, that Messia died for our sins according to the scriptures,

READER: and that he was buried and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures.

CONGREGATION: And that he was seen by Cephas, then by the twelve. After that he was seen by over five hundred brethren at once, of whom the greater part remain to the present, but some have fallen asleep.

READER: After that be was seen by James, then by all the apostles,

CONGREGATION: Then last of all he was seen by me also, as one born out of due time.
