Mark 9:8 (KJV)
And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves.
And suddenly, when they had looked round about, they saw no man any more, save Jesus only with themselves.
Peter, James and John were privileged to witness the transfiguration of Christ but, like so many privileges, they were in danger of getting their focus on the wrong things. This wasn’t about elevating Moses and Elias. The point was to see Christ for who He is, the glorified Son of God.
They were in danger of putting men, great as they were, on the same plane as Christ. God brought them to the crux of the faith; God brought them to just Christ and themselves.
In the world of:
- politics and politicians
- motive and motivators
- empires and emperors
it is vital that we who are Christians narrow our focus down to just Christ and ourselves.
