    Jesus is more than a great man. It is important for us to know the transfigured Christ--to see God in his glory and to respect (fear) him.

    Matthew 17:1-8 “Fear of God Getting Out of My Box” INTRODUCTION Times have changed. When I was growing up, my parents and I would arrive ten or fifteen minutes before the worship service—when we went to church. We didn’t arrive early so we could secure our favorite ...read more

    The Transfiguration Series

    The Transfiguration dramatatically demonstrated that Jesus is more than a simple Rabbi. To the disciples still struggling to figure out who He is, it a powerful revelation of Jesus' divinity.

    The Transfiguration Today we begin our journey to the cross, to that one Event that divided history in half, to the one Event that tore the veil between God and humanity. This one Event is specifically why you are here today and why, if you have faith today in Jesus Christ, your life is ...read more

    Did Jesus Completely Empty Himself Of His Divinity To Become Human?

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on May 7, 2019
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,239 views

    There is a growing belief in the Church that Jesus completely emptied Himself of His divinity in order to become human so that He could be the perfect sacrifice for all humanity, which is why He attributed all of His works and doctrines to the Father.

    "Jesus emptied Himself of His glory, taking the nature of a bondservant, and came in the likeness of men" (Phil 2:7). There is a growing belief in the Church that Jesus completely emptied Himself of His divinity and/or attributes in order to become human so that He could be the perfect ...read more

    J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. “Keepers, Weepers, Losers, Finders” Jesus tells us that to be His disciples, we must deny ourselves, and take up our cross. Now, whatever ...read more

    I believe the Transfiguration took place, because God the Father wanted to answer the question: Definitely - once and for all, “Who is Jesus?”

    A good preacher friend of mine passed away and he always said "It's Good To Be Here". This sermon is a look into the reasons why it's good for us to go to church. Matthew 17:1-8

    In Matthew 17:4, Peter speaks to the Lord during the transfiguration and says these words, "...Lord, it is good for us to be here:...". Why was it good for them to be there? I want to take a few reasons why I believe it was good for them to be there and apply them to reasons why it is good for us ...read more

    Have you ever had a moment when your life was changed? Perhaps it was similar to the Transfiguration. That moment changed the lives of Peter, James, John and Jesus, just like moments in our lives can change us.
