Because God makes the rules He is free to break them when He chooses, however, God only breaks His own rules on the side of grace!

When it comes to confessing the truth of the Christian faith, Christians are given the words. We don’t have to formulate them ourselves.

Our wants and desires are wholly driven by selfishness, just like Peter, James, John, and all the disciples

The Father uses this last festival of Epiphany, the Transfiguration, to announce one more time to us just who Jesus is: His beloved Son, the Chosen One

First, if this passage from Hebrews 3 shines any further light on the Transfiguration account (Luke 9 is already quite bright!), it’s that on the mountain Jesus is showing us where following Him leads to in the end. No wonder Peter wanted to stay.

You’re not normally an eaves-dropper, and you don’t make it a habit of sticking your nose in other people’s business. But some conversations beg to be overheard. Transfiguration is like that.

Our goal is to proclaim the genuine good news—that’s what “Gospel” means—of Christ’s forgiveness for you. We do not offer you better tips, techniques or checklists. Instead, You Are Forgiven is sermons by faithful pastors who will clearly show how you cannot be forgiven by your own efforts, no matter how well you do on your homework, your checklist of tasks. But they will also show how you are actually and already forgiven because Jesus has done all that is needed, for you!

In nature one with God, The Son partakes in love, Of human flesh that we, Partake of God above.

Whether we are overcome by happiness on the mountaintop or overwhelmed by sorrow in the valley, our vision can be our greatest handicap.

The prophets had foretold, His coming Incarnation; The Word would make our flesh, His only habitation.
