Beholding the Glory of Jesus

This sermon explores the profound experience of the transfiguration of Jesus on the mountain, witnessed by Peter, James, and John. This event reveals Jesus in his divine glory, a moment that surpasses his identity as a mere teacher, healer, or exorcist. The sermon emphasizes how the disciples’ encounter with Jesus in his transfigured state was a life-changing "mountain top experience," symbolizing moments when believers feel a deep closeness to God. The sermon connects this revelation to modern believers, explaining that while we may not experience such dramatic moments, we can encounter Jesus in the Scriptures and be transformed by beholding His glory. The message underscores the idea that "we become what we behold," encouraging listeners to immerse themselves in the Bible to grow more Christlike.
