God in Christ Jesus is the infinite Greatness, the supreme Power, the excellent Glory, the perfect Victory, and the highest Majesty forever.
Notwithstanding the different views on the person of Christ Jesus, one consensus from most philosophical, historical, scientific, religious or even mystical perspectives, is that He actually lived on earth at one point in time as a great vessel or Prophet of compassion, who did lots of wonderful works. However, the main reason some still outrightly question if Jesus Christ ever existed is the disruptive zeal in the human ego to cut off the sacredness of life from the human conscience. That is, life is not an ordinary list of puzzles filled with emptiness in the soul. Rather, life is the esteemed treasure of consciousness that encases the virtues of true love, purity, truth and purposeful wellness until contaminated by elements of decay. This living consciousness of the soul always connects with the attractiveness of kindliness to others because of the recognition and benefits this consciousness draws from the source, who is the Supreme Consciousness of Purity referred to as God. That is, those who deny the preeminence of Jesus Christ, most often understand consciousness as human awareness or knowledge, not necessarily from the realm of eternal authority and bold assurance. These eternal authority and bold assurance were the values humankind lost when sin (Decay) through the grand impostor invaded the soul or the human living consciousness through its disruptive deception.
Therefore, when Jesus, who is the Christ (Anointed One) physically came to earth as the glorious Logos; the Word made flesh or the Divine figure of salvation, the restoration of the human true value was replaced from the willful assumptions paraded in spiritual sleepiness and bondage, into the eternal promise that human value is of God’s greatest interest.
Therefore, as part of His (Christ Jesus) eternal process to reconcile humankind with God, He took three of His disciples (Peter, James and John) to the mountain in prayers, where He was transfigured into the glorious brightness of purity. In this great spiritual event, the Patriarch Moses and Prophet Elijah appeared as spiritual hosts representing the Laws and the Prophets, talking with Jesus. They were speaking of the spiritual weight of their earthly assignments ordained in Heaven, but now into the body and life of existence, which Jesus Christ was now representing, which in effect was to fulfill the promise of eternal love into the life of humankind. The presence of the three disciples of Jesus represented the dispensation of grace that is to come. That is, they would be the messengers with others of the good news of freedom and truth to the world.
Now, let us not forget that when Jesus Christ was baptized in river Jordan by John the Baptist, as soon as He completed the process, according to the Holy Scriptures, Heaven opened and the Spirit of God like a white dove hovered over on Him, and the voice of God spoke out that this is His beloved Son with whom He is well pleased. According to Scriptural revelations, John the Baptist came in the spirit of Prophet Elijah as the forerunner to the coming Messiah (Christ). Therefore, when the same Prophet Elijah with Moses appeared on the transfiguration of Christ Jesus, it showed that the ways of God in dealing with humankind are always flawless and not based on guesswork. In that moment of His transfiguration, while His physical body was changed to the purified brightness of Glory, His inner Being, who is the Consciousness of Purity; the Spirit of Truth was in direct communion with the Throne of Glory in the conclusive magnificence of settling the mysteries of existence both in spiritual and physical. That is, when they were covered by the cloud or Glory of God from heaven and the voice of God spoke out that this is His beloved Son, whom they should follow, it meant the values of immortality and love would be refreshed back to humankind forever. The transfiguration of Jesus Christ was simply the communion of the Spirit in His body into Glory as the coming gift of love to humankind forever. It was all about the conclusive plan of God by His Glory in flesh through Christ Jesus, who would transform the human soul into eternal Glory in love with the testimony of life over death forever. The Laws and all the prophecies were unified in the person of Christ Jesus as the bridge of reality between yesterday, today and forever with the reign of the abundance of God’s grace that would be established in the whole world.
Grace became a reality and a free gift by the resurrection of Christ Jesus from the dead. However, His transfiguration was the assurance in Holy communion in Glory that the promise of God to the work of salvation to come is completely sealed. The transfiguration was God telling us He is Love and nothing is going to stop Him from sharing His selfless, unconditional and sacrificial (Agape) Love to us and with us through Christ Jesus by His Glorious Spirit.
Thank You Heavenly Father, who is Spirit and Truth.
Glory to Your Throne forever in Jesus Mighty name…Amen
