My Beloved Son
Mark 9:2-13 | Pastor Buck Poole | June 14, 2026
TRUTH: The Transfiguration of Christ stands as historical evidence of God’s eternal and transcendent plan to rescue humanity from sin and death.
1. The Transfiguration of Christ proves that God has a plan.
2 And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James and John, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. And he was transfigured before them, 3 and his clothes became radiant, intensely white, as no one on earth could bleach them. 4 And there appeared to them Elijah with Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.
– Mark 9:2-4 ESV
2. The Transfiguration of Christ proves that Jesus is God’s Son.
7 And a cloud overshadowed them, and a voice came out of the cloud, “This is my beloved Son; listen to him.”
– Mark 9:7 ESV
3. The Transfiguration of Christ demands a response.
11 And they asked him, “Why do the scribes say that first Elijah must come?” 12 And he said to them, “Elijah does come first to restore all things. And how is it written of the Son of Man that he should suffer many things and be treated with contempt? 13 But I tell you that Elijah has come, and they did to him whatever they pleased, as it is written of him.”
– Mark 9:11-13 ESV
