What does it mean to be an eyewitness of Christ's glory?

Answered in 1 source

Being an eyewitness of Christ's glory means experiencing His divine nature and majesty firsthand.

The term 'eyewitness' signifies a direct, firsthand experience, which the apostles had during key moments in Christ's ministry, notably at the Transfiguration. Peter's recollection of this event in 2 Peter 1:16-18 serves as a vital reminder that their teaching is founded upon direct observations rather than myths. This eyewitness account provides believers with a solid foundation regarding the nature of Christ – His divinity, glory, and the reality of His fulfillment of God's promises. Thus, their testimonies not only validate the truth of the gospel but also enrich our faith by bringing us closer to the reality of who Christ is.
