Mr 9:8 Suddenly, when they had looked around, they saw no one anymore, but only Jesus with themselves.
It
says here that they “… saw no one…but (or except) Jesus only.”
Let’s apply this to salvation. You know, salvation is just like that. Salvation
is seeing no one and nothing else except Jesus only. Sadly, when it comes to personal salvation, a lot of people see themselves in
it too. They see their good works, their good character and their religious activities.
No. No. No. Just as they saw no one except Jesus only on the Mount of
Transfiguration, so, in Mount Salvation, we should see no one and nothing else
except Jesus only and what He did on the cross.
When Paul came to Corinth, he said that “I determined to know nothing among you
except Jesus Christ, and Him crucified (1 Cor. 2:2).”
You see, salvation is seeing Jesus only and what He did on the cross. It is
trusting and relying on His person and work on the cross. My friend, if you want to be saved. Behold no one and nothing else. Behold
Jesus only.
