Re: Verse reading– 2 Peter 1:16-3:18 (day three)
“We were eyewitnesses of his majesty.” The Transfiguration of Jesus heralded the reality of God’s life-giving work in the world; the resurrection confirmed it. The fact that Jesus’s resurrection is a non-reproducible event confuses historical method with scientific method. Indeed, for anyone who cares to take the time to look into the matter, the resurrection of Jesus Christ is verifiable by every stringent standard that establishes all accepted accounts of human history. It’s not history that stands in the way of belief. Once again, it is the will that refuses—or agrees—to bend.
