A Light in the Darkness

In 2 Peter 1:12–21, Connections Pastor Nathaniel Gray explains why Christianity is grounded in historical reality rather than cleverly invented myths. Peter’s eyewitness account of the Transfiguration, God the Father’s affirmation of Jesus, and the fulfillment of biblical prophecy confirm the authority of God’s Word. Scripture shines like a lamp in spiritual darkness, pointing us to Jesus, the bright morning star. Because this message is true, believers are called to obey God, study His Word, reject isolation, and take their next step in biblical community.
