Luke 22:70
68 And if I ask you a question, you will not answer.
69 But from now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”
So they all asked, “Are You then the Son of God?” He replied, “You say that I am.”
71 “Why do we need any more testimony?” they declared. “We have heard it for ourselves from His own lips.”
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
