Transfiguration Ministries is community of Christian believers whose primary goal is to proclaim the gospel message through word and deed by sharing God's Love through the power of the Holy Spirit.
Before Jesus gave the Eucharist or even the Holy Spirit to his disciples, he called his disciples to preach the Gospel and expected them to heal the sick (Mt 10:7-8; Luke 10:9). Jesus never proclaimed the Gospel without demonstrating and confirming the message with accompanying demonstrations of power – with physical healing being the most frequent sign
The Great Commission (Mark 16:15-18)
Jesus said to them, “Go into the whole world and proclaim the gospel to every creature. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved; whoever does not believe will be condemned. These signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will drive out demons, they will speak new languages. They will pick up serpents [with their hands], and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not harm them. They will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”
The three Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke) recount the Transfiguration – a crucial event in Christ’s public life – when He, Peter, James, and John ascended what is believed to be Mount Tabor in Israel. In the midst of prayer, Our Lord’s appearance was altered: “…his face shone like the sun, and his garments became white as light
The three Synoptic Gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke) recount the Transfiguration – a crucial event in Christ’s public life – when He, Peter, James, and John ascended what is believed to be Mount Tabor in Israel. In the midst of prayer, Our Lord’s appearance was altered: “…his face shone like the sun, and his garments became white as light” (Matthew 17:2). Suddenly, Moses and Elijah appeared alongside Christ conversing with Him.
What was the purpose of the Transfiguration? By revealing His glory on the mountain, Christ offered a glimpse of heavenly joy to bolster the faith and courage of these three Apostles who would soon suffer persecutions.
In a similar way, Jesus reaches out and heals us so that we may experience the heavenly joy which is to come. Everyone who is touched by the Lord has a life changing experience, either physical, emotional, or spiritual. Each of us experience our own transfiguration as Christ offers us a glimpse of his heavenly power. We are transformed in Christ, as the Kingdom of God is opened to us..
The Kingdom of God is at hand.
