What happened with the Transfiguration of Jesus was so spectacular it would be easy to over look three little words. “Listen to Him!” God told the witnesses to listen to Jesus, not Moses or Elijah. Those of us here listen to Jesus. How could we encourage others do the same?

Though the terms ‘cure’ and ‘heal’ are often used interchangeably, they really have different meanings. “Cure” is defined as a ‘recovery or relief from a disease”, while to “heal” is ‘to make sound or whole.’ We might be cured of some physical or mental ailment, but remain unhealed in the larger sense. The soul remains sick. Jesus is most concerned with the healing of souls damaged by evil and sin. I don’t think he’s so concerned about your cholesterol.
