A Saving View of God's Glory

Eager Avenue Grace Church

Matthew 17-1 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, 2 And was transfigured before them- and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. 3 And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him. 4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here- if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles- one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. 5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them- and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased- hear ye him. 6 And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid. 7 And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid. 8 And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only. 9 And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead.
