JESUS IS
TRANSFIGURED

M A R K
Chapter 9*

And he said to them, “I tell you the truth, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the kingdom of God come with power.”

After six days Jesus took Peter, James and John with him and led them up a high mountain, where they were all alone. There he was transfigured before them. His clothes became dazzling white, whiter than anyone in the world could bleach them. And there appeared before them Elijah and Moses, who were talking with Jesus.

Peter said to Jesus, “Rabbi, it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.” (He did not know what to say, they were so frightened.)

Then a cloud appeared and enveloped them, and a voice came from the cloud: “THIS IS MY SON, WHOM I LOVE. LISTEN TO HIM!”

Suddenly, when they looked around, they no longer saw anyone with them except Jesus.

As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus gave them orders not to tell anyone what they had seen until the Son of Man had risen from the dead. They kept the matter to themselves, discussing what “rising from the dead” meant.

And they asked him, “Why do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must come first?”

Jesus replied, “To be sure, Elijah does come first, and restores all things. Why then is it written that the Son of Man must suffer much and be rejected? But I tell you, Elijah has come, and they have done to him everything they wished, just as it is written about him.”

PETER’S EYEWITNESS TESTIMONY (2 Peter 1)

We did not follow cleverly invented stories when we told you about the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty. For he received honor and glory from God the Father when the voice came to him from the Majestic Glory, saying, “THIS IS MY SON, WHOM I LOVE; WITH HIM I AM WELL PLEASED.” We ourselves heard this voice that came from heaven when we were with him on the sacred mountain.

I read or heard somewhere this will be a scene not covered by The Chosen. Perhaps due to the need for special effects or not being able to do it justice. Along with some other moments or miracles for the same reason. If so it’s a shame because I would be curious of their take on it.

I agree, but I am also intensely grateful for what they do present. This Sunday we’ll see the double-cure of Veronica and Jairus’ daughter, which I look forward to eagerly.

On Sunday they’ll also need to present the fact of Jesus favoring Peter, James and John, which of course is an integral part of the Transfiguration. Let’s see if Andrew or others are portrayed as feeling left out and becoming jealous....

Good Morning Dan, and happy Friday to all.

Many wonderful pieces here, and beautiful windows too.

Dan posted this awhile back, and here it is again:

These are short videos of various stories, in which God intervened to change families, and save lives. Do you need an ‘encouraging word’ today? You’ll find it here.

Thank you Dan!

Late to the page. A wonderful Johnson at #50 and, of course, all the stained glass windows. Thank you, Dan!
