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. That kind of metamorphosis accords and exalts the Christian gospel over against the humanism of our culture, whether secularised or spiritualised.

There is a distinction between God and Man which will never be obliterated but preserved for ever – even in the glorified Christ in whom they are joined. But communion between the God-Man and his believing people will result in each Christian being fully conformed to the perfect humanity of Christ while retaining his or her own individuality. It will not result in a faceless absorption into the divine but face to face communion with the triune God for ever.

‘The transfiguration of Christ shows how the divine can penetrate the human without destroying it. The transformation of the believer shows how the human can become conformed to the divine without its ceasing to be human. This is the ultimate metamorphosis that is compatible with Christian truth.’ — HYWEL R. JONES

Linking the Transfiguration of Christ to our transformation as believers in Christ is intriguing to say the least. I’ll confess that I never thought of the connection before I came across this book. The connection isn’t fabricated as both spring from the same word in the New Testament...This book addresses more scholarly concerns than I am used to seeing in a BOT volume, but it is an interesting study. I always appreciate someone who can open the Bible and show me something I have never put together before. That is what happens here. Jimmy R. Reagan

Perfect Teething Toy for Puppies!
Color: Pacifier, Size: Small
My puppy absolutely loves this Nylabone Puppy Pacifier Chew Toy! The bacon flavor immediately caught his attention, and it has quickly become his favorite toy. It’s the perfect size for small puppies and easy for little mouths to carry around and chew on. The material is soft enough for teething but still durable enough to hold up to daily chewing. It has really helped redirect my puppy from chewing on furniture and shoes, and it seems to soothe his gums while he’s teething. I also like that it keeps him entertained for long periods of time. Great quality, puppy-approved, and definitely worth buying for any small dog owner!

My dogs love these
Color: Pacifier, Size: Small, Color: Pacifier, Size: Small
These are my dogs favorite toys and they keep them entertained for hours. Yes they are able to chew them down to small pieces but they are sturdy enough where they won't swallow them. I have miniature dachshunds so small dogs.
