Mark 9:2-13 - “St. Mark’s Summit”
from Faith Sermons Hosted by Faith Reformed Presbyterian Church
Pastor JD de Klerk Scripture Readings: Exodus 24:12-18, 34:29-35 Summary: Jesus leads Peter, James, and John up a mountain, where he is transfigured before them, revealing his divine glory alongside Moses and Elijah. God's voice from the cloud declares Jesus his beloved Son and commands the disciples to listen to him, confirming that the Messiah must suffer, die, and rise again rather than immediately bring earthly glory. Coming down the mountain, Jesus explains that Elijah (John the Baptist) already came and suffered, foreshadowing his own coming rejection and death. Believers must not expect an easy Christianity of glory without suffering; the path to glory runs through suffering, and Christ endures it with us by his Spirit.
