The Lord’s Death
“And, behold, there talked with Him two men, which were Moses and Elias: who appeared in glory, and spake of His decease which He should accomplish at Jerusalem” (Luke 9:30-31).
There they were on the Mount of Transfiguration. Five men with the Lord Jesus Christ. Peter, James, John, along with two men from past eras, Moses, and Elijah. What an awesome experience it must have been!
Moses and Elijah could have visited with the Lord on numerous topics when they met Him on the mountaintop. Instead, they discussed Calvary. Perhaps the whole of heaven was occupied with the Lord’s imminent death, and so Moses and Elijah were just continuing what was the main topic of concern in heaven.
How much are we occupied with the Lord Jesus and His death at Calvary? God would commend this subject to you as one that warrants your special attention today. It’s the most important event that ever occurred on earth. God will never forget it and neither should we.
