Lesson 4121

 (Lesson 4121)(05-05-23) Matthew 17:4-9

    “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. 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. And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid. And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid. And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only. 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.”

    In today’s quote, God spoke from the heavens and told Peter, James and John that Jesus was His “beloved Son”. Whereafter, Jesus told them to mention the event to no one until after He had finished His sacrificial ordeal.

    This is another proof that Christianity, as we know it, was NOT taught until AFTER Jesus had been crucified, buried and resurrected.~
