Yes, Lord; I have believed that you are the Christ
She said to him, “Yes, Lord; I have believed that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who is coming into the world.”
The confession is good; yet works must also agree with faith concerning the glory of God.
Greek
Λέγει αὐτῷ· Ναί, κύριε· ἐγὼ πεπίστευκα ὅτι σὺ εἶ ὁ χριστὸς ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ θεοῦ ὁ εἰς τὸν κόσμον ἐρχόμενος.
Καλὴ ἡ ὁμολογία· δεῖ δὲ καὶ τοῖς ἔργοις συμφωνεῖν τῇ πίστει περὶ τῆς δόξης τοῦ θεοῦ.
