“He said unto them, But whom say ye that I am? Peter answering said, The Christ of God.”
But what about you? he asked. Who do you say I am? Peter answered, God's Messiah — Peter's confession in Luke is the most concise: God's Messiah (ton Christon tou theou). The possessive of God communicates the specific divine appointment — the one whom God has anointed, the Messiah of God's choosing and making.
