Coming Back from the Presence of God
Coming Back from the Presence of God
And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light. And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him. Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid. And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, and be not afraid. And when they had lifted up their eyes, they saw no man, save Jesus only.
And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus charged them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen again from the dead. And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things. But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them. Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.
Before Jesus, Peter, James, and John arrived at the multitude, Peter, James, and John had just witnessed Jesus have a conversation with Moses and Elijah. After another episode Peter’s open mouth insert foot disease.

Side note: We know that Peter had a lot of moments where he spoke when he should not have. But Peter’s dedication to the Lord Jesus Christ was unmatched. His life should encourage the rest of us that God can greatly use anyone if we are willing to submit to His will. Also, doubt forget that Peter was the only one willing to step out of the boat.
