Transfiguration of Jesus The Transfiguration of Jesus on the mountain reveals His divine nature and the fulfillment of God’s promises, connecting the Old and New Covenants.
Visible Love of God God’s love is tangible and evident through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, who died on the cross to reveal the depth of God’s love for humanity.
Promises to Abraham God’s covenant with Abraham is marked by visible signs, such as the stars in the sky and the smoking fire pot, demonstrating His faithfulness and love.
Transformation through Christ The Apostle Paul speaks of the promise that Jesus Christ will transform our bodies to conform to His glorified body, a promise symbolized by the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist.
