Transfiguration#2
John 14:15-21
Another mountain top experience
Jesus took 3 (P, J and J)
Like Moses
(but they stayed behind)
Jesus was transfigured
Moses & Elijah
the only people who had met God on the mountain
who had seen God's glory
Peter - booths
Is this how it's going to be?
(tent of meeting)
God speaks - 'Listen to him'
Terrified - fall down
J touches them and says don't be afraid
Bit don't say anything - yet
represent the Law and the Prophets
and now Jesus' glorified state revealed to PJJ
Overwhelmed
Theological questions
Build up disciples
A week after saying he was going to die
2 Peter
What for?
Role of Elijah and Moses?
Why shine?
Nub
Theology v experience
Theology important
Apologetics
Systematic argument
'It makes sense'
Reasonable Faith
