How did Jesus reveal His identity to His disciples?

In Luke 9:18-20, Jesus asks His disciples, 'Who do the people say that I am?' and directly follows up with, 'But whom say ye that I am?' This rhetorical inquiry compels the disciples to reflect on their understanding of Jesus' true identity. Peter's response, 'the Christ of God,' encapsulates the revelation granted to him by the Father. Throughout Jesus’ ministry, He performed miracles, taught with authority, and fulfilled prophecies, all of which gave evidence to His divine nature. The culmination of these revelations is essential for recognizing that He is indeed the awaited Messiah, and it sets the foundation for our faith in Him.
