Understanding ^esus
cI^cv. C£)avkf IM^eurcr
The story of the Transfiguration (Luke 9:28-36) helps us
understand who Jesus really was. In the early Church there was
a heretic named Arius in the church of Alexandria who taught that
Jesus was only a man. Yet he was such a holy man that after he
died, God raised him up to be a demigod (a kind of half god).
This teaching was long ago condemned but has a way of
reappearing.
We find it has reappeared in our time in the rock opera Jesus
Christ Superstar. It presents Jesus as a great man, a holy
teacher, who was crucified and that was the end of him. Some
people afterwards got the idea that he was the Son of God and
then invented all those stories about him. However, if Jesus was
really transfigured on the mountain, then his life could not be
seen as that of one who is only human, but one who is invested
with divine power and has the approval of God the Father.
This is further confirmed by the mention of Moses and Elijah.
The Jews often referred to the Hebrew Scriptures (what we call
the Old Testament) as the Law and the Prophets. Moses was the
symbol for the Law and Elijah for in the prophets, and Jesus
came to fulfill the Old Testament. There is nothing in the New
Testament that was not first in the Old Testament. The Old
Testament tells us much about Jesus in prophecy and we should
not ignore it. So we find much to rejoice about in the story of the
Transfiguration, for it show the Father's approval for the teachings
of Jesus, and so we should transform our own lives by following
the teaching of Jesus.

SOMEONE HEARD
Stephen Grellet, the noted Friend, once felt a burden on his
heart and the leading of the Holy Spirit to preach the gospel to
men in an American lumber camp. But when he arrived at the
camp he found it deseted, for the men had gone farther into the
forest. Feeling, nevertheless, that he had been sent there by the
Holy Spirit, he stood up in the empty mess hall and delived his
sermon, heard, as he thought, only by the board walls of the
building and the lofty trees of the forest.
Years later, crossing London Bridge in the evening gloom, he
was somewhat rudely stopped by a man who accosted him and
said, "You are the man I have been looking for all these years. I
have found you at last." "There must be some mistake," said
Grellet. "I have never seen thee." "No," said the man. "But did
you not preach at a lumber camp in the American forest?" "Yes,
but there was no one there." "I was there," responded the man,
"and I heard the sermon."
Then he went on to relate how he had come back from where
the men were working to get a saw that had been left behind,
when he was startled and alarmed at hearing the sound of a
man's voice. Approaching the building, he looked through a chink
of the logs- and Saw Grellet standing by himself preaching the
sermon. He listened to the preacher, was convicted of sin, got
