"Then answered Peter, and said
unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to
be here: if thou wilt, let us make
here three tabernacles one for thee,
and one for Moses, and one for
Elias.
While he yet spake, behold a
bright cloud overshadowed them:
and behold a voice out of the cloud,
which said, This is my beloved Son,
in whom I am well pleased, hear ye
him."
(Matthew 17:4,5 KJV)
Peter was so much like you and me.
He wanted to do something good.
Peter wanted to do something to please
God. Peter wanted to show himself a
true disciple, etc., etc., etc.
But what did God the Father want?
"hear ye him."
In our churches today we have a lot of
activity, ritual, retinue and even preach
real loud. But very little of it is the way
God told us to do it. When will we ever
start listening instead of living our own
way trying to show ourselves "Christians."
