Transfiguration ~ February 19th

Happy Transfiguration Day!

PREPARING OUR HEARTS FOR DIVINE SERVICE

First Lesson: 2 Kings 2:1-12 - Elijah Taken to Heaven

Second Lesson: 2 Corinthians 3:12-18 - The Glory of the New Covenant

Gospel Lesson: Mark 9:2-9 - Jesus Shows His Glory(The Transfiguration)

Online Individual on Mark 9:2-9 I would encourage you to read the text. Close your Bible and answer each statement. Open the Bible to be assured from your Bible of the truth that is revealed there.

  1. See also Mark 14:33. Who belonged to the "inner circle" of the disciples of Jesus? What might have been the reason for Jesus not to share these times with all of the Twelve?
  2. See also Isaiah 6:1-2. What is described in detail in these two visions of the glory of the Lord? What--is--perhaps unexpectedly-- not mentioned in detail?
  3. Who joined Jesus and His disciples on the mountain? The text does not say how they were recognized. How do you think they may have become known to the disciples and/or to St.Mark the evangelist?
  4. Where else did a voice from heaven declare much the same message? (You may wish to use cross-references or a concordance for this question.)
  5. What is the significance of the event and the special Old Testament dignitaries encountered by Jesus and the three disciples? Why do you suppose these two particular individuals were chosen instead of others from the Old Testament?

Prayer: O Lord Jesus, bless my study of Your life and ministry as it has been recorded and shared by Your servant St. Mark. Send Your Holy Spirit to guide me into the truth. Thank You for revealing Yourself and Your great love for me.Amen

262 Days to vote Pro-Life
St. Peter's a member of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod takes Scripture seriously, taking God at His Word as He speaks about life. He is the creator of all life. There is nothing in existence that hasn't come from Him. Because life is a gift of God, beginning at conception, we are serious about protecting and serving all human life until its end in death.
