Faith (John Piper)

   In the time of Jesus, the mount of transfiguration
was on the way to the cross. In our day,
the cross is on the way to the mount of transfiguration. 
If you would be on the mountain,
you must consent to pass over the road to it. 

--Henry Clay Trumbull

   Faith begins with a backward look at the cross, but it lives with a forward look at the promise. 

--John Piper    

Happy Feast of the Transfiguration!
