In today's GB News Daily Reflection, we reflect on Jesus's "favourite question"."Who do you say that I am?""Many see Jesus as an important prophet but as Jesus prepares his disciples for his return to Heaven, he upends those conclusions when he says, "I am not of this world'."Jesus speaks of himself as more of an exemplary human fellow. He's transcendent, cosmic, the very God who made the world."It's sometimes hard to swallow, incompatible with modern values but here's a thing, if Jesus is who he says he is, he has the right to challenge the direction of my life."
