Transferred Faces

TRANSPORTATION comes only to those
who commune with God. One tells the
following after Moses had been with
God on the mount, his face so shone
that men could not look upon him till
the brightness began to fade away.
After Stephen, the first Christian
martyr. had been talking in behalf of
his masters cause, he looked up
steadfastly into heaven and saw the
glory of God, and those that beheld
him bore witness that they saw his
face as 1t had been the face of an
angel.
In far great degree was the fash
ion of Christ's countenance altered
when his face shone as the sun on
that wonderful occasion which we call
the TRANSPORTATION. Then for mo-

Comments.

The events of this lesson occurred q
week after the conversation recorded
in the last. The TRANSPORTATION is
also described in Matt. 17:1-13, and
Mark 9:2-13. Our last lesson found
Christ and his disciples entering the
city of Caesarea Philip, where they
were engaged in heated discussions
about the divinity OF Christ and his
right to die for humanity.

Verse 3s. And they held their

Christ would not permit himself to be

ment his inner glory was made man
ifest, when the glory of his divinity
that was hidden by the veil of his hu-
manity was kindled and burst
through" And it was while he was
praying that he was TRANSPORTED and
became glorious with splendor of God.
While there can be no parallel in hui
man experience to this of Christ's on
the mountain height, because no man
is sinless, yet exalted have been the
experiences of those who have prayed
earnestly in some crisis. During the
Boxer trouble in China is was said
that the native Christians could not
have escaped If they had tried because
their faces betrayed to their heather
neighbors that they had been with
Christ.
Not only the face of Jesus was trans
figured, but his very garments shone
A writer suggests that the garments
here may represent the circumstances
and experiences of the Christians life

thing that concerns him is transfigur-

thus fail to catch the vision of Christs
glory and the wonderful power of the
church. But when they were fully
awake, they saw his glory Not until
the church wakes up to the realiza-
ton that Christ is the real head of
the church, and that the story of his
death, burial and resurrection, Is the
news the world is waiting for, will the
world turn it's march toward the
church door.
Verse SO. Peter said unto Jesus"
there was a divine attraction in the
scene, a foretaste of heavens own
glory, and no wonder Peter exclaimed,
1T is good for US to be here" But
his proposition to build tabernacles for
the three glorified persons to dwell in,
was hasty and inconsiderate. The
best excuse given for it is the one
given by Mark: HE knew not what he
should say; for they were frightened"
1t shows that men in the flesh are not
prepared to judge of the fitness Of
things in the spiritual forld. In all
probability many Of our most cherished
conceptions of that world are as incon-
gruous as that of the frightened Peter.
Verse "a. "And while he said these
things" the scene had been witnessed
long enough by the disciples, and it
was abruptly terminated by the intro
duction of another. The entire trans
action seemed to have occurred in the
night (notice that Jesus had been
PRAYING until the disciples were heavy
with sleep; and that they came down
from the mountain the next day.. Out
Of the womb of darkness had suddenly
appeared the three glowing forms OF
Jesus, Nose and Elijah, and now while
the disciples were trembling at that
sight there floats near to them out OF
the same darkness a cloud all radiant
with light like that which shone from
the face of Jesus, and as 1t begins to
over hang them, they hear that voice
which has never yet been heard BY
mortals except with fear and trem-
bling 1t came just as Peters incon-
gruous proposal had escaped his lips
and it is no wonder that the three
fishermen fell on their faces and
were sore afraid"

Verse 80. Now Peter and they that
were with him were heavy with sleep"
It seems that many of the members of
the church of Christ, have acquired
this sleeping sickness from the apos-
