Summary
Mark 9:2-13 recounts Jesus's transfiguration, where He reveals His divine glory to Peter, James, and John, appearing with Moses and Elijah. God's voice commands the disciples to listen to Jesus, establishing the passage's central point: believers must listen to and obey Christ's teaching, despite obstacles like biblical ignorance, preconceived notions, competing agendas, and hardness of heart.
Highlights
Listen to Jesus might seem like a rather lame application point, of course we should listen to Jesus. Well, I'm sorry, I didn't write the book. I'm just reporting what it says.
We can be hard of hearing as men who gave up their life and their livelihood to totally shift it and follow, hanging on his every word. We can be that deaf.
The only solution for hardness of heart is God's grace. God must perform a miracle and cause you to be born again.
