1 Church Notes
Melville Church
""Phe Transfiguration of Christ,"
Luke 9 : 24-28, was the paster's sub-
ject in Melville Church, last Sabbath
morning. In this scene, we see Christ
in Hie highest form as the Messiah.
This was the highest point in the spir-
itual experience of °hist and it enabl-
ed Him to solve some of His most
difficult problems, We can learn les-
sons from the transfiguration scene :
(1) There are times when we reach
the highest point in our personal ex-
perience. At these times, we want
with us the companionship of only
our closest friends. (2) The transfig-
uration scene was a prayer meeting.
Christ with histuree companions went
up to the mountain for prayer and
meditation, and His companions caw
Ohiist in a more glorified form than
ever before, If we come to our
church services in the spirit of prayer,
we ehall see Christ revealed in a more
glorified form than we have ever seen ,
him before, and it will help us solve
some of our own problems. Christ I
could not cnntinne doing the work
which he was doing without being'
transfigured before His friends, and
so if we live the Chtistien life, we
cannot help lint stand transfigured be. •
