Transfiguration and Transformation : Banner of Truth Trust : 9781800400870 : 180040087X : 15 Nov 2021 : Our Bibles consistently use the noun 'transfiguration' with regard to Jesus but 'transformation' with regard to the Christian - and yet it is one and the same verb, transliterated 'metamorphosed,' that is used in those places in the original text. Why is that so? Is there an important difference between them? And why does the noun 'metamorphosis' which is familiar to us never occur in the New Testament? And yet is there some connection between the transfiguration of Jesus and the transformation of the Christian? Hywel R. Jones presents answers to these questions in this book. In the course of doing so he shows how the divine can penetrate the human without destroying it as in the Person of Christ, and how the human can become conformed to the divine without its ceasing to be human as in the case of the Christian.
