So then, whoever confesses me before people, I also will confess him before my Father who is in heaven.
In this saying, Jesus promises that those who, without shame and with boldness, believe in Him and acknowledge Him before people will receive the same acknowledgment from Him before God. This is an encouragement to believers to openly confess Jesus, without fearing any social or personal pressure. Jesus shows that the relationship with God is mutual, and that the expression of faith is important for eternal life.
