In the Bible, in the Gospel of Matthew, chapter 16, there is an account of a conversation between Jesus and his disciples which says this:

 

'Jesus and his disciples went on to the villages around Caesarea Philippi.  On the way, he asked them, “Who do people say I am?”

They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, one of the prophets.”'

 

It's clear from this conversation that people at that time were a bit confused about who Jesus was and had different ideas about him.  And the same is true today! Many people have heard the name of Jesus and know something about him but are still confused and unclear about who he really is.

 

On the next few pages, you can find out some of the ideas that people have about Jesus and why they are not the complete truth and then you can read the truth about who Jesus really is.
