Scott Allen leads today's lesson from Matthew 17:1-13. Three disciples went with Jesus to the mountain top. There, Jesus full glory was shown as He took on the white light of a heavenly presence. Two key figures, Moses and Elijah, appeared as well, representing the Law and the Prophets (that is, the entire Old Testament). But most of all, the voice of God the Father affirmed Jesus (as at Jesus' baptism) and directed the disciples to listen to Him. Post-resurrection, all believers are invited to rest in the glorious presence of Jesus, treasuring His words to us and expressing thankfulness for all that Jesus intentionally fulfilled on our behalf at the cross.
