GETTING A GLIMPSE OF THE GLORY OF JESUS CHRIST

*  Matthew 17:1-9 (SLV) - And after six days, Jesus led Peter, James, and John his brother, up into a high mountain, and He 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 Elijah talking with Him.  Then Peter said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here:  if You will it, let us make here three tabernacles; one for You, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.  And while he was still speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them:  and they heard a voice coming from out of the cloud which said, This is My beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased; listen to Him.  And when the three disciples heard it, they fell on their faces, and were very frightened.  And Jesus came and touched them, and said, Arise, do not be afraid.  And when they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus.  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.  [See also Mark 9:2-10 and Luke 9:28-36]

*  Revelation 1:10-18 (SLV) - I, John, was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the First and the Last:  and, what you see, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.  And I turned to see Who was speaking to me.  And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks; and in the midst of the seven candlesticks, I saw One like unto the Son of man, clothed with a garment down to His feet, and He was wearing a breastplate made of gold.  His head and His hair were white like wool, as white as snow; and His eyes were as a flame of fire; and His feet were like fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and His voice was as the sound of many waters.  And He had in His right hand seven stars:  and out of His mouth went a sharp two-edged sword:  and His countenance was as the brightness of the sun.  And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead.  And He laid His right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the First and the Last:  I am He Who lives, Who was dead; but now I am alive forever.  Amen....

*  Revelation 19:11-16 (SLV) - And I saw heaven opened, and beheld a white horse; and He that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He shall judge and make war.  His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns; and He had a name written, that no man knew, but He Himself.  And He was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and His name is called The Word of God.  And the armies which were in heaven followed Him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.  And out of His mouth went a sharp sword, that with it He will smite the nations:  and He shall rule them with a rod of iron:  and He shall tread the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.  And He had on His vesture and on His thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS!
 
JESUS WAS BORN TO FULFILL THE ROLE OF THE PASSOVER LAMB.
CHRIST WILL SOON RETURN TO RULE AS THE LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH!
ARE YOU READY TO MEET HIM?  IF NOT, TRUST IN OUR RISEN LORD TODAY!
