A real blessing. Thank you. I don't take that for granted.
I'm not saying it because I have to. Thank you. Hannah, thank
you. Don't you, Sheriff? Hannah. Jeanette,
thank you. Don't you, Jeanette? I thank
you. Thank you, Gabe, for leading the scene, and thank you for
that hymn. It's difficult. It's difficult
to do. Thank you. Luke, the Gospel of
Luke, Chapter 9. Brother Tom and I laugh at one
another. We often say this, that whatever
Scripture we're dealing with at the time is our favorite passage
of Scripture, especially the Psalms. That's my favorite psalm,
whatever we're dealing with at the time. And this story, we've
looked at it many times, and right now, this is just my favorite
story, the story of our Lord Jesus Christ. transfiguration
of when he revealed himself as he really is to his disciples. Read with me verses 28 through
32. It came to pass about eight days
after these sayings, he took Peter and John and James and
went up into a mountain to pray. And as he prayed, the fashion
of his countenance was altered, and his raiment was white and
glistening. And behold, there talked with
him two men, which were Moses and Elijah, who appeared in glory,
and spake of his decease, which he should accomplish at Jerusalem. But Peter and they that were
with him were heavy with And when they were awake, they saw
his glory and the two men that stood with him. This is the gospel. This is salvation
for the Lord Jesus Christ to show you his glory. But this
is eternal life, he said, that they might know Thee, the only
true God, and Jesus Christ, whom Thou hast sent to behold His
glory. That's what John said. We just
read it, didn't we? We beheld His glory. Oh, may
we behold His glory this morning. May someone behold His glory
who has never seen it. And may all who have see it again
and again. Twenty-eight says now, it says,
after eight days, he took Peter and James and John, came to pass
after these saves, after these saves, eight days after these
saves. He'd been talking to them and
speaking to his disciple, and he said some things. Go back
to verse 18. Look at this. It came to pass he was alone
praying, his disciples were with him, and he asked them, saying,
Whom say the people that I am? They answered John the Baptist,
some Elias, others say one of the old prophets. He said unto
them, Whom say ye that I am? Peter answered and said, The
Christ of God. Whom do men say that I am? You've heard me say this before,
that if someone called me the reincarnation of John the Baptist,
that would be the highest honor. One I'm not worthy of. Or Elijah,
or one of the old prophets, Samuel? Oh my, I'm not worthy of such
a high honor as those men I esteem so highly. But this was not a
high honor to the Lord Jesus Christ. That wasn't a compliment
to him. They were putting him, people
had him on the same level as Moses and Elijah and so forth. Oh, he's much higher than that.
We've got to see him much higher than that. Remember when Paul
or whoever wrote the Hebrews said, we see Jesus. We see a
man who came to this earth named Jesus, made a little lower than
the angels. Why? For the suffering of death. God was manifest in flesh. Why? To die. To live as a man. To establish righteousness. Fulfill
the law for his people. And to die on the cross as a
substitute for his people. That's why he became a man. Okay? And that's all most people saw
was a man. But not his people. He reveals
that he's more than a man. He went on to say, we see him
crowned with glory and honor, high and lifted up. His whole train fills the temple,
holy, holy, holy. So it would be a compliment to
me. And most people say good things about Jesus, Jesus this
and Jesus that, but it's not good enough. I know that when God does finally
show a person who Christ really is, when the Spirit shows someone
who Christ really is, they'll quit calling him Jesus. And they'll start like the disciples
calling him, Lord, Lord. All right, so after these sayings,
you see that? After these sayings, verse 27,
He asked them, whom do you say? He said to them, whom do you
say, the man? And in verse 27, he said to them, he said, I tell
you a truth, there be some standing here which shall not taste of
death till they see the kingdom of God. That's something he said. That's what he said. Some are standing here, and there's
some in here who've seen the kingdom of God. You've lived to see the kingdom
of God. What is the kingdom of God? It's
not a place. Didn't our Lord say that? The kingdom of God doesn't come
with observation. It's within you. Christ in you. Christ revealed in you. Paul said, Would it please God
to reveal His Son in me, His glory, His honor, King of kings.
Lord of Lord. Kingdom of God is not a place,
it's a person. Kingdom of God is not meat and
drink, it's a person. He's the meat and drink. And
here's how you know somebody really has seen His glory in
the kingdoms within them. Everybody wants to go to heaven,
right? Everybody wants to go to heaven. But God's people,
they're not concerned with a place. They want to go be with Him.
who loved us and be in his presence. It doesn't matter where we are. And I've said before, that's
the reason the streets are made of gold, because we don't care
that the streets are pure gold, because we're with him. The kingdom
of God is not a doctrine. It's a person. It's the dominion
of the king. It's to be under the dominion
of the king. Kingdom of God is not of this world. That's a lot
of people, ignorantly, waiting on them to rebuild a temple over
there in Jerusalem. Well, keep waiting, and if they
did build it, it doesn't matter, the Lord will tear it down. The temple of God is His church. Christ is not going to come and
sit in another temple, no. He's right now sitting in His
temple. He's in his temple. His people. His people. It's
a spiritual kingdom. It doesn't come with observation.
It's within you. Person. Kingdom of God came to
earth and his name is Jesus Christ. King of kings. Lord of lords. These men saw the kingdom of
God before they died. They saw the king himself. The
king showed himself glorious to them. So after these saints,
he took Peter and John and James, after these saints. He said,
some of you are going to see the kingdom in just a few minutes. Three of them weren't going to. They took Peter, James, and John.
Who chose who? He chose these three men, Peter,
James, and John, to do what? To show them His glory. To show
them His glory. I love that passage in Mark 3
that says, He went up into a high mountain and sat down. And He called unto Himself whom
He would. He said, I'm the shepherd. I call my sheep. He sat down
and He called whom He would. whom he did foreknow, he did
predestinate, whom he predestinated. He called. You see, you're calling,
brethren, don't you? How God chose. God chose. God chose. God called. He called
whom he would. And what does it say? They came
to him. They came. I'm so glad salvation
is by command. I'm so glad that the shepherd
left the 99 and came to this one lost sheep in the wilderness.
and found me and called me by his grace and put me on his shoulder
and is going to carry me all the way home and never let me
down. Never let me down. Aren't you? He took Peter, James,
and John. And the Lord chooses whom he
will, whom he would, to show them his salvation, to show them
his glory. Listen to this in Isaiah 43.
This is my favorite chapter in Isaiah. Listen to this. He said, You are my witnesses,
saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen, that ye may
know and believe me, and understand that I am he. Before me there was no God formed,
neither shall there be after me. I, even I am the Lord, beside
me there is no Savior. I have declared and I have saved.
I have showed that there is no strange God among you. Therefore,
you are my witnesses, saith the Lord, that I am God. I have chosen
you to know me." And that's the only way we're going to know
him, is if he makes himself known to us. All right, look at it.
It says this, they went up into a mountain to pray. And as he
prayed, the fashion of his countenance was altered, and his raiment
was white and glistening. The Lord of Glory, Jehovah God,
whom no man hath seen or can see, the unseen God, was seen. The unseen God was
manifest in the flesh. He was the express image of God,
the only image, bodily image of God Almighty. God Almighty,
the Father, took an image, and His image is Jesus Christ. He was made flesh. Men back then
didn't believe him that he was God. They didn't know him. They didn't believe him. They
just saw a man, right? They just saw a man. And even
today, many, if not most, believe in, if you will, that man who
came here named Jesus. Humanitarian and this and that
and the other, you know, good works and so forth. And they
admire him and so forth, but they really don't believe. that
that man is God, was and is God. And I'm not sure if the disciples
really knew up to this point. They're going to, because this
is eternal life. They're going to see it. And
the only way we're going to know is if he shows us his glory.
As of the only begotten of the Father, God manifests in the
flesh. We've got to see him as he is,
God. Because only God can forgive
sin. Only God can save us. I love
that Isaiah 25, that's my favorite chapter. It says, this is our
God. We've waited on him. He'll save
us. The Jews of old knew, they believed at least, that the Messiah
who was coming was God. Didn't they at the time? That's who they would look for.
God's going to come. Emmanuel, God with us, is going to come
to this earth. Well, He came to His own, the
Jews, those He made. God, who? His own. He was in
the world. The world was made by Him. Who?
God. And He came and He said, You're
just a man. You said this on the radio. They said, You're
just a man. You make yourself God. Oh, you've
got it all backwards. Your understanding is all wrong. He's God. He made Himself a Lamb. And the way He's going to have
to show us for us to really look to Him, for us to be saved, look
unto Me and be saved, I'm God. The only way we're going to really
look to Him and believe Him is if He shows us He's God, our
Savior. Because only God can save us. No man can do that but the God-man. And I love this, my favorite
chapter in 2 Corinthians, chapter 4, John 2. God, who caused the
light to shine out of darkness. Miraculousness. Mysteriousness. Let there be light. That same
God, who is light, hath shined in our hearts, the hearts of
His people, His chosen, like Peter, James, and John. to give
the light of the knowledge of the glory of God, where is that? In Jesus Christ, the face of
Jesus Christ. So he took Peter, James, and
John up on this mountain to show them the glory of his person,
the glory of his work, the glory that he had with the Father before
the world began, and the glory we shall see throughout eternity. Behold, there talked with him
two men. And when the Lord, it says, his fashion, his countenance
was altered, he doesn't change. The Lord doesn't change. The
Lord had this physical, fleshly body that was a robe, as it were,
to cover his deity. God who's a consuming fire. God
who dwelleth in light no man can approach unto. He didn't
change, but he had his deity clothed, robed, in a plain
brown wrapper. And he peeled that back for these
three men to see. See? And like that, remember
that tabernacle in the wilderness? What was the outer covering of
that tabernacle in the wilderness? Badger skin. Brown, rough, common
badger skin. Anybody passing by, Hivites,
Jesuitites, all these ites went by, Armenians passing by, could
see no glory in that. That's just an old brown tent.
There ain't nothing to that. He hadn't seen the inside of
it. But John and his people, his priests were allowed on the
inside. What'd they say? Shekinah glory. The glory of God. The only place
where God dwells. And so it was with the Lord.
He robed himself in this skin and flesh, and they couldn't
see his glory. But he took these three chosen
men to see who he really is. And his countenance was altered,
his raiment white and glistening. They saw him as the sun that
shineth in all its strength. John tried to describe him, didn't
he, in Revelation 1. He can't do it. In verse 30, in their talk with
him, with the Lord Jesus Christ, two men, which were Moses and
Elias, Moses and Elijah appeared with him. My, my. Moses and Elijah. Moses, the lawgiver. The lawgiver. The law came through Moses. Elijah,
the prophets. What were they doing there? They
were bearing witness of the Lord Jesus Christ to those disciples. To Him give all the prophets
witness. The law is written. Moses wrote
of me, Christ said. They were there to bear witness
of him. They talked with the Lord. They talked with the Lord.
They bore witness. What were they talking about? Moses came from glory. Elijah came from glory to talk
with on the mountain there with the Lord Jesus Christ. What was
this conversation? Huh? What were they talking about? Same thing angels desire to look
into. The subject of heaven right now. The subject of those on
earth right now who are his people. The subject of subject. The whole
subject of the scripture. Look at it. Verse 31. They appeared
in glory and spake of his decease which he should accomplish at
Jerusalem. Stay with me. They spoke of his
death. his decease which he should accomplish
at Jerusalem. And our Lord, I quoted it, Moses
wrote of me, he said, the law, all the law, you know what all
the law speaks of? Everything in the law talks about
God being holy, and man broke that law and he needed atonement.
You've got to have a sacrifice. Blood without the shedding of
blood. Isn't that all through the law? Blood, lamb without
the shedding of blood, no remission. God, when I see the blood, I'll
pass over you. The law, this is witnessed by
the law. The atonement of Christ, the
death of Christ. Elijah, to him give all the prophets
witness. They are they which testify of
me, Christ said, of his glorious, accomplished redemption on Calvary's
tree. That's what this whole book is
all about. And that's going to be the theme
of God's people throughout eternity. It's the theme of the church
right now on earth. The sum and substance of the
gospel is what Jesus Christ accomplished on Calvary's tree. Isn't it?
That's it. Could get no greater, grow greater
subject than this. The death he should accomplish.
Now think about that. When we die, it's not an accomplishment. You've never heard it said of
anybody that he died. Well, he did it, didn't he? Oh,
he did it. He accomplished it. No, usually
we think that it's the end of things we hoped to accomplish.
Things we wanted to accomplish, we weren't able to. We died.
Think about this. Death itself was an accomplishment
by the Lord Jesus Christ. It's something unavoidable to
us. The soul that sinneth must surely die. There is appointed
unto man once to die. The Lord has appointed our death.
Our bounds are set. We cannot pass, and we're going
to meet that, and he's appointed. The Lord kills, and we're going
to die at his hand, through his means. We can't pass it. But
the Lord said, Christ said, No man taketh my life from me. This proves who he is. They tried. I love those stories,
how they tried. They grabbed him. You got him?
I got him. Cast him off the hill. Okay,
you got him? I got him. Thought you had him. You can't
see that. Stop. No man taketh my life from
me. I lay it down of myself. This
I have from my Father. This power I have. I am God. I am life. You can't take my
life. Me, you live and move and have
your being. You can't kill God. No man can. And one last of all
of them, one last glorious display of who he was that no man could
take him, that he voluntarily, wittily laid his life down, was
in that garden. Remember when they came to take
him? In that garden they came with swords and staves, a whole
mob of people. And he came out and met them,
one man, like Elijah was it that they came out to get. You preached
on that. Elijah. And the chariots are firing.
But they came out and said, Whom seek ye? They said, Jesus. I am. They hit the dust. One last display before he willingly,
voluntarily said, Now take me. And men ignorantly still say
things like, it's what will you do with Jesus? Oh my. Here's what you find out. That
when God Almighty shows you who Jesus Christ is, you start from
that day forward going, what's He going to do with me? That's
what the people at Pentecost found out, didn't they? Hey,
we've got this Jesus fella killed. We've done with this Jesus fella.
And the Lord Jesus Christ was preached from Pentecost in all
his power and his glory, seated on a throne, reigning and ruling.
God in whose hands their breath is, the one they rejected. And
Peter, after he preached that, sat down and all of them started
wailing then. Oh no, what are we going to do? What's he going to do with us? Is it, will he accept us? Will
he have mercy on us? That's the question, isn't it?
That's the saving. Salvation has come when a person
realizes that we're in his hands to do with as he pleases. And
appeal to him for mercy and forgiveness of sin. Well, death itself was
an accomplishment by the Lord Jesus Christ. Oh, oh my people. When he hung on that cross, When
he hung on that cross willingly, those nails didn't hold him there. And even while hanging on that
cross, he was manipulating everything that was going on. He was telling
people the whole disposing thereof. He was telling them what to do
to fulfill Scriptures, how that Christ would die according to
the Scriptures. He was telling those soldiers
to part his garment. He was telling them to give him
vinegar to drink. He was manipulating the whole
thing. This is God. He didn't die as a helpless martyr.
Frustrated failure. He's accomplishing something.
Scriptures are being fulfilled. You see His glory? That's His glory. His glory. Part of His glory was Him hanging
there willingly, voluntarily. Being made sin. And then when it was all over,
when he cried, it's finished, accomplished, was it sad? I wasn't
sad. He bowed his head. His head didn't
drop. His head didn't roll like that.
He bowed his head as one taking a final curtain call. And I know
heaven erupted in standing ovation. Bowed his head. And he even arranged
for what would happen to his body after he died, didn't he? You're not going to abuse it.
It's going to be taken down late in the tomb that I chose. And three days later, he walked
out. Accomplishment. Even death was
an accomplishment. But what he did accomplish What
this glory is here, the death of Christ, this accomplishment
was the full, final, complete, eternal redemption of His people. The atonement of their souls.
The payment of their sins. Our Lord Jesus Christ didn't
come to try to save anybody. He came to save His people from
their sin. And He accomplished it. Yes,
He did. washed us from our sins in his
own blood. Not tried, didn't try to, he
did it. That's his glory. And people
take away from his glory when they say he died for all men
without exception and some end up in hell anyway. That is demeaning
to him. Dishonoring to him. Take away
from his glory. Not one blood of Jesus Christ
was shed in vain. Not one drop of blood of him
was shed in vain. paid the price for every one
of God's events. Particular redemption, particular
glory. Yes, limited atonement, particular
redemption of His people. It's His glory. It's not a doctrine
to be argued. It's His glory. It's our hope. If you're telling me that the
blood of Christ was shed for Judas and he's longed and shed
for me, what's the blood of Christ have to do with my salvation? It's what saves me. The blood
of Christ or my decision? My faith. Huh? Oh no, you take
away from His glory. The blood of Jesus Christ, God's
Son, cleanses us. He gets the glory. My faith is
a result of that bloodshed. Everyone for whom Christ died
will believe. That's the payment. That's the
necessary response of those he died for. Our Lord came to accomplish
redemption. He didn't come to do all He could
do and then the rest would be up to you. He came to do all
that was to be done. Is this not our favorite subject?
This is a sinner's favorite. Oh, my. And again, it's not doctrine
here. We're talking about our hope.
Our hope. Our only hope. If the Lord doesn't
save me, if the Lord didn't make me righteous, I'm going to end
up filthy still. I can't justify myself, can I?
Well, He does. Bless her heart, you better believe
that. The Lord came to fulfill the
law. Did He do it? Why did He do that? To show us
how? To do it for his people. To charge it to their account.
To reckon. Fulfill the law. Did he do it?
Moses stood there and said, accomplish. He said, I've observed you, angels,
devils, men. Who charges me with anything,
Christ said? The elect. Who shall lay anything
to charge of God's elect? God looked at his son and said,
I'm well pleased for his righteousness. He's fulfilled my law. A man
has glorified me, fulfilling the law for me. Well pleased. He earned heaven. Opened up the
gates. This man's walking in by virtue
of his own holiness. Who? A man? Oh, not just any
man. It's the King of Glory. But look
behind him. A whole bunch of people you can't
even number. He got a number. That's who he
died for. That's who he did it for. They're
coming in with him on the coattail, covered under the robe of his
righteousness. Not just a doctor. This is his glory. His honor. Accomplished. Moses said, law
accomplished. Elijah said, Every jot, tittle,
every type, symbol, every shadow, every picture, every person,
everything in Scripture written of you, accomplished. You did
it. You fulfilled it all. You fulfilled.
You are the Christ. No man could have any doubt whatsoever. Accomplished. Accomplished. Tell you what was accomplished
there at Calvary? The death of death. The death of death accomplished. They spoke of the death he should
accomplish. He put an end to death. He said this, he said this to
Martha and Mary, didn't he, at Lazarus Tomb. He said, he that
liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Why? Because he died. Substitute. And if Christ died
for you, you'll never die. The soul that sinneth must surely
die. But all in Christ made alive. Made alive. Why? How? Who? Him. Him. The death of death. Put
an end to death. Christ came to deliver us from
captivity, from the fear of death. All our lifetime we're subject
to that bondage. We were talking about this last
Sunday. Barbara, weren't we? Fearing
death. You know how we'll get over the fear of death? Look
into Christ. Just look into Christ. Risen, seated, exalted. He said,
I live. You live also. You believe He's
alive? You believe Christ is alive?
Huh? Right now, reigning and ruling,
a real person alive? He that was dead? And this is
what He said in the Revelation. Behold Him. He said, me, I. I was dead, I'm alive. And he said, he can't lie, he
said, because I live, you live also. You won't die when you
lay down that body. When the time comes, when that
means of your death, what men call death, it's not death. It's
not death. We've got this veil of tears,
this veil of flesh, this veil we can't see through. If we could
just peek through, it's glorious what it is. It's glory. We can't
see through it. We think, I'm going to leave
this, I'm going to leave that. If you can see through anything,
I'm not leaving anything. I'm gaining. That's what Paul
went through and he said, to die is gain. To stay is loss. If you can just see that, he's
got to show us that. shows us Himself. Keep our eyes
fixed on Him. He's the prize. He's heaven.
He's life. He's everything. He lives. You need not fear death. It's falling asleep and waking
up in glory. And the older we get, really,
the more we ought to look forward to it. You know, I'm at the age
now where sleep is just a wonderful thing, a wonderful thing. It's hard
to come by it, isn't it, after you reach a certain age. And
you just relish it, relish it. I find myself getting in bed
earlier every night, trying to get some sleep. And the older
we get, the more we ought to look forward to falling asleep.
It's over. Labor, sin, trials, troubles,
tribulation, this body of death, this evil, present evil world. Wake up in a place wherein dwelleth
righteousness. Righteous people with our husband
whom we've come to know and love forever. Be with the Lord. What's
not to look forward to? And our Lord said that is a certainty
for his people. It's not some cunningly devised
fable. That's the truth as it is in
Jesus Christ who said this. He can't lie. He rose from the
grave and said, I told you. I told you. Fear not. Fear not. Oh, my. He accomplished
the death of death. Oh, my. They saw his glory. It says that they were asleep. Verse 31, He appeared in glory
and spake of His deceit. Verse 32, But Peter and they
that were with Him were heavy with sleep. And that was us, wasn't it? He is us sometimes. There was
a time when all of us, everyone in here did not see His glory,
had no interest. We were not just asleep as others,
but dead. and trespassed in death. And God Almighty had to quicken
you, didn't He? Had to raise you from the dead.
To do what? To see His glory. Give you blind
eyes sight. Give you deaf ears hearing. Give
you lame feet to walk in faith. And your loosened tongue employed
for His service thanks, and we've slept as others, we were in darkness
even as others, weren't we? Blind, even as others. And salvation
is a great awakening. Not coming to the knowledge of
the doctrines of grace, it's a great awakening, coming to
the knowledge of Him, who is grace, the doctrine of Christ. Verse 32, they were asleep, and
when they were awake, what did they see? This is it. This is it. When a Lord reveals
Himself to a sinner, this is what they'll say. Him. His glory. His glory. His glory. It's all about His
glory. Salvation is for His glory. Salvation is about His glory. For us to behold His glory. Didn't
our Lord say this in His prayer, John 17? I will, that they be with me
where I am, that they might behold my glory. Oh, my. If you see anything glorious
in this right now, if you see anything glorious in the Lord
Jesus Christ, oh, you're so blessed. Stephen, blessed art thou, Stephen
Bar-Joe, flesh and blood didn't reveal it to you. The world wants
to hear about this. They are of the world, and therefore
they speak of the world. That's what the world wants to
hear. Give me a health and wealth gospel, you know, this and that
and the other. What do God's people, who have seen his glory,
what do they need to see? Him. Him. My, my. Oh, poor old Simon Peter. Look at this. Verse 33, it came
to pass, as Moses and Elijah departed from him, Peter said
unto him, said Jesus, Master, he called him Master, it is good
for us to be here. Let us make three tabernacles,
one for thee, one for Moses, one for Elijah. Oh Peter, I love
that man. Simon Peter, I love that man.
I'm so thankful the Lord raised, called Simon Peter, aren't you?
Old Simon Peter. We admire men. We just do. Flesh is impressed
with flesh. There are men I esteem highly.
Moses. Really. Moses. Elijah. wonderful men, or great men. But they're just men. They're
just men. Nobody's to be on an equal level
with the Lord Jesus Christ. No man is to be worshipped. No
man is to be extolled and honored above the Lord Jesus, or even
equal with Him. You remember when John fell down at the feet
of the angel? in the revelation, the worshiping. It was a glorified being, an
angel. He didn't know who he was. And
we're all going to look like that. With John being in flesh,
he saw this glorified being and fell down. And what did the angel
say? See thou do it not. Don't worship me. Worship God. I'm of your brethren, the prophets. That might have been Moses or
Elijah or Samuel. Might have been one of them.
Might have been James who was beheaded. Might have been James.
No, no, we don't put men on the same level, on a par with the
Lord Jesus Christ. He's got a name which is above
every name. God has made this same Jesus
Lord. And we don't call men, that's
the reason we don't call men reverend. And Hebrews 12 says,
we'll be partakers of His holiness. That's a title that only belongs
to the Lord Jesus Christ, His Holiness. And people blasphemously
call that fellow up there with a fish on his head, His Holiness.
That's blasphemy. That's anti-Christ. That's what
that is. Reverend, Father, His Holiness. Oh, no, no. That belongs to the
Lord Jesus Christ alone. Him alone. And it goes on to
say here that verse While he thus spake, and we just
talk too much sometimes, don't we? There came a cloud and overshadowed
them, and they feared. The fear of the Lord, you see,
is the beginning of wisdom. He needs to shut our mouths and
see His glory. And there came a voice out of
the cloud, the Father saying, This is my beloved Son. Hear Him. This is the only one. This is the only one here to
look to, to worship, to come to. Your King, your Prophet,
your High Priest, your Mediator, your Substitute, your Covenant
Head, your Righteousness, your Savior, your Lord and your Redeemer. This is He. Look to Him. Don't
look to Moses and the law. Don't look to the prophet. Don't
look to any man. Look to Him. Hear Him. Hear what
He said. And so when that voice left,
the voice was passed, all they saw was Christ Himself. And if God Almighty, by His mercy
and grace, chooses us to behold his Son from that day forward, we'll see him as all and in all.
All we need. All we need.
