Ztn good reasons for these three be
ne allowed to see the glory of God.
Probably to make a connection bp-
tween God and man that had, never
been made before, and to impress
thoroughly upon their minds the di
vine side of the Saviour. They were
made to realize the sublime majesty
of a glorified Saviour, and his claims
verified in the voice of God himself.
They were really in the divine 'pres
ent, and enjoying a privilege that
man had never before enjoyed. Heav
en to them and a glorified Saviour up
till now had only been revealed from
some one else. Now they had been in
the actual physical presence of a
glorified Saviour. What a blessed
vrivilege was theirs on that dayl
Now they must bring together the
misty mountain ton and the plain be
low. The divine glory of the Son of
God is to be brought in touch with
the demoniac son of an earthly
father. The glory of Jesus was not a
thing apart from life’s dark trage
dies. If we believe in the Transfigura-
' on of tbp Saviour we must also 'be
lieve in the Transfiguration of man,
and how is this to be accomplished?
Through the efforts of the followers
of the Transfigured Christ.
We should have in mind that un
belief cuts the line of -omn'i'nication
that we should have with God. We
have beheld Christ on the misty
mountain ton in all his glory. Now
we must follow him to the valley be
low. When Christ descended from the
mountain he found disputing scribes,
a demon possessed boy, and a heart-
VnVen father. He stopped the com.
can be experienced by man if we will
do the will of the Father,as taught by
the glorified Son of God. '
We have a very brief description of
the transfiguration. Jesus was plainly
view of the three. His face shone to,
them as the noon-day sun and his very
countenance was changed. His very
raiment blazed forth with a luster
that was sublime. They were as
'white and as dazzling as the flash of
« itning across the heavens. The
teness of his raiment exceeded
anything that mortal man could ac
complish. At this time the radiance
of the face of Jesus was greater than
was tot of Moses when he descended
from Sinai when he had teen >n com
munication with Gdo; or the face of
Stephens that glowed as an angels’
after he was stoned and martyred.
There it was that Jesus’ divine na
ture which was hidden by his human
form gleamed through the earthly
body of clay and the glory of heaven
stepped momentarily through. On the
brow, clouded with care, on the head
that was destined to bear a crown of
thorns rested the sunlight of God’s
presence. It was a spectacle that the
world had never before beheld.
Now the two prophets in the scene
appear in the persons of Moses and
Elijah. They came as representatives
of the prophetic'dispensation to make
obesiance to the Lord of the new dis
pensation. The appearance at this
time of Moses and Elijah further aids
the scheme bf the divine scene for

timely one to prove that the spirit of

Peter addressed Jesus and told him
that it was good to be there. Of
course it is good to be with Jesus at
any time. All at once the apostles
looked around and everything was
back like it was before. The sublime
scene had ended. Surely that scene on
the mountain that night there reaches
down to the present and is still a
witness for us as to the splendor,
grandeur and sublimity and happiness
of the presence of the glory of God.
Jesus admonished them to strict
secrecy, for he knew that if they told
what ha<) happened on the mountain

plaint of the scribes, he healed the

To the Mountain Top
The time of ascent up the mountain
was one week after the confession
Peter made of Christ’s Messiahship.
\Ye do not know what happened dur
ing this week; perhaps nothing much,
or at least not enough to be noted
by the inspired pen. We are told that
the disciples slept on the mountain
top an ( ) descended from thence the
ntxt day. So it is rasonable to sup
pose that the transfiguration happen
ed at night. It is not, however,
authentic that it did take place at
night.
There were four men present,
Jesus, Peter, Janies and John. They
were the same three that accompa
nied Jesus into the ruler’s house at
Gapernium. Also they were the three
nearest him in Gethsemane. It is a
disputed question as to what moun-
am. The scripture designates the
dace as a high mountain. It is most

the Mount of Transfiguration
they would be ridiculed and subjected
to severe criticism, and it would start
unnecessary excitement. It would
arouse feeling both for and against
Jesus. The truth of the transfiguration
would not be believed by all till the
resurrection and then it would be be
lievable to all. .
In due season the report of the
transfiguration was made. We notice
that the proceedings at the trans
figuration were accurately recorded by
the gospel writers Mathew, Luke and
John. So they must have been in
formed of it before they chronicled
the event. John tells us that he be
held his glory and honor of the Son
full of truth and grace. Peter tells us
in tl.e second epistle of Peter he was
an eye witness of the majesty that
was dispayedl on the Mount. He tells
us that he was in the presence of
the grandeur and glory and majesty
supreme. ,
The memorable message heard and
related by Peter, “This is my beloved
son in whom I am well pleased", was
the link that connected man and
r !■ -.-t-pr through the glorified Son.
Thus the glory and splendor of the
transfiguration was transmitted to us.
When Jesus Left the Mountain Top
When Jesus descended from the
mountain top he entered into an en
tirely different atmosphere. There was
unbelief on every side. The wilful un
belief of the scribes, the unbelief of
the father, the unbelief of the boy.
There was never a greater contrast
than was here. The experience on the
mountain top and the experience in
the valley is the picture of the differ
ence of man’s way and God’s way. one
| is sin and unbelief and the other is
holy, sublime and glorious and is
j woith all the world to the one who
:can experienc the change that man
(can have if he will ascend the hjll of
. the Lord. The word of God was on
the mountain top and the word of the
devil prevailed m the valley. Now,
t which place will we try to make our
1 habitations ? Will it be on the moun
tain top or will it be in the valley be
low. When Jesus was descended into
the vallev he came into the presence |
' of an epileptic boy of the worst type..
j The boy had 'been thus afflicted from i
■ his earliest childhood. He was so vio- j
, lent when seized by the convulsions |
of the condition that he would throw '
himself into the water, or into the
| fire. The condition of the boy with
I one of the convulsions was a ternble
.thing to behold. Of course the ftber
I was anxious to get the boy healed.
He had failed so far to get him cured.
Would he fail now? At first he was
just one of the crowd. He was a poor
| man. He appealed to Jesus simply as
a teacher. It was that the incompe
tent disciples had shaken his forth.
Nevertheless, he told Jesus what he r
iwanted and what he had come for.;
! Jesus was absent at the _ time the j
■ father arrived but he put in his ap- j
.pearanee at the criteial moment- He
'astonished the multitude by his ap- i
i pearanee. The father then makes his |
iwishes known to Jesus. He (Jesus)
1 told the ather to bring the boy to him.
.This was done. Tile boy was seized
with a convulsion and rolled on tne
ground, foamed at the mouth, and ,
1 gnashed his teeth. The fath«m nnv, j
.finds that a cure is conditioned and
