Dear Sir, i was amazed when you where praying, the Hail Mary. I thought. I was one of a few, who bowed his head when the prayer reaches " blessed is The Fruit of thy womb ,Jesus". This bought a smile within me.when you bowed your head to , The Ark of the Covenant to whom Jesus was carried into Earth.
Brilliant! This is the best explanation I have heard so far of the "Transfiguration" ... ever. I like the contextualism of thought and summa in the presentation. Thank you sir. Brilliant!

@@monikatunstall70 Mark Mercer is a heretic. JESUS told Nicodemus that one enters the Kingdom through Baptism. The 144,000 are virgin males from the twelve tribes of Israel, and have never been revealed in this world yet. JESUS told the Apostles that they weren't to worry in their lifetime about the Kingdom of Judah HE promises to them HE will in time restore. That Kingdom is only a part of the Kingdom of Heaven, which is the Catholic Church. The reason JESUS said the least in the Kingdom is greater than John the Baptist is because of the Eucharist John never got to see before his blessed Martyrdom. As a person, John is still greater than most Christians, but the participation in the LORD's own Human Life and SPIRIT through the Eucharistic bond to HIM is greater than all created persons including Mary and the Angels. Peter was made JESUS' Prime Minister, and his Office took full effect after the sacrifice of the LAMB OF GOD and Resurrection. At this point, GOD WHO gives Authority to men to forgive sins transferred the Authority from the Priests and Elders of the old covenant and the Kingdom that protected it, to the Catholic Hierarchy. JESUS the WORD and LAW of GOD died like a SEED to bring forth the planting of the Catholic Church encoded within the Letter of the Torah, and the code of the Law was crucified with and in HIM, rising to new form with HIM from the dead, establishing the New Order of a Covenant and Kingdom.

Dr. Hahn, you give so much joy as you unpack the hidden truths in the Bible. Now I know the purpose of the TRANSFIGURATION. MAY YOU CONTINUE TO BE BLESSED.
Dr Hahn, As usual, you don't disappoint... Acts 8:30 "Do you understand what you read?" Again, you put things into perspective because I've been challenged with the timing of the events in Matt 16:28. So good to see Pope Benedict lent a hand to guide this parousia of seeing Christ in the kingdom. The Transfiguration is the kingdom which the three were witness. I've surely enjoyed the reference points you've made in the past on the ark of the covenant with David, and the incredible parallels with Mary as the living ark of the covenant. Really FUN... Thanks. Jim Cummings
One thing i want us to remember is that communion is our Lord's supper, a gift of himself to us, so the details of how it all works is ultimately in his hands, and what we agree on theologically doesn't all of the sudden change what God is doing in his bread & wine.
My dear Priest friend now in heaven explained the Transfiguration when Jesus was Transfigured on the mountain, Jesus was the Living Word from Moses and the Spirit of Elijah, in Body , Soul and Divinity True Son of God, as we pray to the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit . The Holy Trinity. Thank you my Dear priest friend Father Byron the most holy priest I ever knew. Your explanation is perfect,
The "Transfiguration" makes it clear that the protestant's doctrine that we fall asleep and die until Judgment Day is incorrect. Otherwise Moses and Elijah could not have appeared on the mountain before Jesus.
Luke 23:43 “.....today you will be with me in paradise”. What is it about the word ‘today’ that they do not understand? These are some of Jesus’ final words as a man - from the cross. Today
protestants believe that the very moment we close our eyes here, we are with the lord. Please please understand Christ came to save us, there is nothing else. Leave all inhibitions and cleave to Jesus as lord and savior
@daffidavit Then what is the use of the second coming, where it is written "the dead in Christ will be risen first"? Is it not in the second coming of the Christ that the righteous will then claim their reward?
@Enforcer Bl Anne Catherine Emmerich - the Delores Passion of Christ - see the videos at Virgo Potens on her visions of the Resurrection. Amazing stuff. Yes Jesus descended into the place where the Patriarchs were and showed them how he died for them and that they were going to the Heavenly Kingdom. Still, God is timeless and on the Cross I believe Jesus was referring to Heaven when he said Paradise but I’m not a theologian.
I’ve been pondering the transfiguration wondering why Jesus did that and wondered whether it ultimately lead to the resurrection and you just showed me that. Thank you
If you only listen to one Bible teacher, you'll be limiting your exposure to other revelations of the Holy Spirit, shared through these learned people (Catholic learned people, of course)...As great as Dr. Pitre is, he doesn't need to be featured on each Catholic channel.
@@smc4jmj1 What are you trying to accomplish with this insult? Go over to Catholic Productions and watch Dr. Brad Pitre's videos. He has some very good videos, but I credit Dr. Scott Hahn as the first Catholic apologist to give me answers after enduring insults on my faith by anti-catholic protestants, when most Catholic clergy members provide none.
67chevlle I’m not insulting Dr. Hahn I’m simply saying that everyone has a different style of teaching and I feel for myself that I’ve have grasped more from when Dr. Pitre or Dr. Bergsma explain things. We all have our opinions. I asked a simple question and it wasn’t to offend Dr. Hahn or anyone who follows him. As I said in my comments. Dr. Hahn is a great teacher.
🤯 Dr Hahn that was so deep(at least for me anyway, lol). Thank you for explaining all those connections…this was soooo good! I feel like a bit of a theologian after this one. ☺️
The "Jesus"-trilogy written by Benedict XVI is still underrated, in my opinion. Hugely debated (and often criticised) in "theological" circles, it tries (and manages) to save the "real" Jesus of the Bible (!) for Christianity (or at least for us Catholics) - to save it, that is, from the modernist theologians' attempts at deconstructing i.e. destroying him. I suppose Benedict saw this as the climax of his theological and pastoral work, as his most important legacy. Whatever they make him say in interviews now (March 2021), and despite the fact that he left us with a terrible successor due to his abdication, I am personally very grateful to him for his papacy.
I agree with you. I have read many of Pope Benedict XVI (Cardinal Ratzinger) books and they all inspired me to draw closer to God. He also wrote the current Catechism which is full of truths. His teachings encourage us to live a life of prayer (also referred to as Christ mysticism- the only way to communicate with God) and and when we are strengthened and renewed in our minds, the Holy Spirit leads us to good works. Pope Francis is a liberal pontiff who inspires people to implement social change to help the poor and sick worldwide. But, 1st and foremost, we need God. We need to experience the spiritual reality that God in Christ is always with us, forgives and loves us, "fear not, I have redeemed you, I have called you by your name and you are mine". God requires repentance and obedience to his Holy Word from all of us. "I will never leave you nor forsake you"
Absolutely IT IS JUST AND RIGHT..... That we listen to the the Eternal Father Who said This is My Beloved Son ...listen to Him. I am perplexed why someone do not mention meditating on the Luminous Mysteries He keeps on promoting the Holy Rosary without the Luminous Mysteries and ignoring the Chaplet of Divine Mercy ( Jesus Christ demands Mercy....we must listen Him ) Thank you very much Dr. Scott Hahn for your excellent exposition. AMDG SAG JMJ Semper Deo Gratias et Marie
Thanks Dr. Hahn. I have my traducter with me to understand your wonderful explanation. It would be more easy if was there subtitles in Spanish. Thank you !!🙏
@mark mercer Then , If you say that it is Catholic doctrine give me the source; or in any case in which part of the catechism it says it literally as you write it ? And what about the 144,000, it is catholic doctrine too ?
When JH Cardinal Neumann came into the Church. Bishops broke out cigars and bourbon. When Hahn converted....50k came in with and after him and continue to do so...and I am one of them
What an eye opener! Thank God that God does not leave us not knowing. Glorious teaching by a scholar and Christian gentleman. Serious and intentional. The Holy Sacrament.
All Glory to the Father, the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. God will not share His glory with any other. That means not to any king, not to any earthly or spiritual authority, nor to any pope, nor even Mary. “I am the LORD, that is My Name; I will not give My glory to another, Nor My praise to idols”. Isaiah 42:8
I believe Our Lord, Jesus Christ, did indeed immediately return. Jesus had said he would leave, and would not be fouund, then he would return and could be "seen". He returned in the person of God, The Holy Spirit who would come in His name. Jesus returned in The person of The Holy Spirit, who would be acting only in the name of Jesus Christ. Alelluia, alelluia, Jesus has been among us since the beginning. Since the descent of Our Lord, The Holy Spirit.
In the bosom of the Father, Ere the ages had begun, Thou wast in the Father’s glory, God’s unique begotten Son. When to us the Father gave Thee, Thou in person wast the same, All the fulness of the Father In the Spirit to proclaim. By Thy death and resurrection, Thou wast made God’s firstborn Son; By Thy life to us imparting, Was Thy duplication done. We, in Thee regenerated, Many sons to God became; Truly as Thy many brethren, We are as Thyself the same. Once Thou wast the only grain, Lord, Falling to the earth to die, That thru death and resurrection Thou in life may multiply. We were brought forth in Thy nature And the many grains became; As one loaf we all are blended, All Thy fulness to proclaim. We’re Thy total reproduction, Thy dear Body and Thy Bride, Thine expression and Thy fulness, For Thee ever to abide. We are Thy continuation, Thy life-increase and Thy spread, Thy full growth and Thy rich surplus, One with Thee, our glorious Head.
Funny, I also wondered why the church does not make a bigger deal of the Transfiguration as the priest mentioned it at mass last week!!! It is played down so much and you have made me realise how amazing it truly is♥️🙏
This Transfiguration is the meeting of Witnesses on a mountain with the Manifestation of GOD to found confirmation of the truth of a Covenant about to be given. This was like that in Moses' day, thus he himself was a Witness here. At both events, GOD's Voice is heard from Heaven with a show of Glory. Because these three Apostles heard the Voice of GOD the FATHER from Heaven telling them to believe in the New Covenant about to be established, they could assure all of the very fact of the Covenant being that prophesied by Moses and Jeremiah. Those standing be JESUS, except Judas Iscariot (thus making it some there, not all) saw the beginning of the Kingdom that is the Catholic Church, as accords with what JESUS told Nicodemus the kingdom is: what we enter immediately at Baptism. And those least of the Kingdom are only greater than John the Baptist as partakers in the Divine Nature through the Eucharist he didn't get to partake in. Moses ordered made a Tabernacle for the SHEKINAH of GOD. Peter wanted to make tabernacles to house CHRIST in Glory, and two witnesses of HIS to bear witness to HIM. It was a reasonable gesture. But a moment later there were no longer three figures of extreme Glory to meet the eyes of those they wanted to convince at designated stations of glorious evidence.
@mark mercer What makes you say that no one understands scriptures riddles? Is that what scripture tells you, or the Catholic church? In any case, Jesus said that some of them standing there would not taste death before seeing the Son of Man coming in his kingdom. This was obviously fulfilled at the transfiguration.
Hi I'm a cradle Catholic from India. This is how I see the Transfiguration. Jesus who is God came down to earth veiled as a human. His disciples followed him everywhere thinking he was a Godman or Prophet but when Jesus takes Peter, James and John up the mountain to meet Moses and Elijah he lifts up that human veil for a few moments and he starts glowing and He lets them see Him as He really is, as GOD. At that very moment they realise that the man they followed everywhere and ate and drank with was not a Godman but GOD HIMSELF. That's why Peter starts trembling because now he knows he is standing in the Presence of God. Jesus begins commissioning His Church on earth when Jesus asks his Apostles who they thought He was. Peter answers 'You are the Son of God. Jesus says God told you this. Then Jesus looks intently at Peter and says, ' You are Peter the Rock upon which I shall build my Church and the gates of hell shall never prevail against it' Thus Jesus appoints Peter as the first Pope to lead his Church to whom he has delegated immense powers, so immense that He says to Peter, whichever sins you forgive on earth will be forgiven in heaven and whichever sins you retain on earth shall be retained in heaven. Thus Jesus himself instituted the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Is there anything in this world to beat these powers.
@Enforcer when He came to earth, He came as man and lived like man, eating, drinking, partying, mourning among men so the Apostles thought he was probably a Prophet till He revealed himself as God to just three of his disciples at the Transfiguration. In that sense he took off the veil of the man he became for our salvation and let Peter, James and John see Him as He really is, as God just for a fleeting moment so that they would know Him in fullness of Truth.
I think that when Peter, talking about the three tabernacles, showed nervousness. I work in the field of criminal justice and people do this a lot when they don't know anything else to say or they just get extremely nervous.
Professor Hahn, thankyou for such a beautiful and deep teaching on the transfiguration and the blessed trinity. I hope that you will read this message and that what I share with you will encourage you, like it encouraged me. Recently, on the feast day of the transfiguration I was mediating on this passage of scripture, and I was given a beautiful revelation which I'd like to share with you. This scripture mentions Peter James and John as being with our Lord and there is a hidden meaning here. Each of these apostles names means something; as you know Peter is the ROCK on which Christ would build His CHURCH. James is identified in scripture as the BROTHER of the Lord; and John is not only James' brother but also called in scripture the BELOVED disciple. When we combine the meaning of their names we get the Church (or Rock) of Brotherly Love. As you most likely know the Church of Brotherly love is literally the meaning of the name of the church of Philadelphia spoken to by our Lord in Revelation. In Revelation Our Lord promises this church to be spared from the hour of trial coming to test the whole world; and the fact that Peter talks of building "booths" could very well point to the feast of booths in the Jewish calendar, as the time when this may happen. The fact that you point out God's divine love as the essence of Who He is, as well as the driving force behind the gospel, is significant - especially when that gospel is meant to drive us to loving God and to love each other, the way that Christ first loved us. Thankyou for reading, May God continue to bless you.
Shalom be with you. The Hebrew Bible says Peter, Jacob and his brother John and then it says "obey him" instead of listen to him. Glory to God that we have a chance to sit at their table

Hugely debated (and often criticised) in "theological" circles, it tries (and manages) to save the "real" Jesus of the Bible (!) for Christianity (or at least for us Catholics) - to save it, that is, from the modernist theologians' attempts at deconstructing i.e. destroying him. I suppose Benedict saw this as the climax of his theological and pastoral work, as his most important legacy. Whatever they make him say in interviews now (March 2021), and despite the fact that he left us with a terrible successor due to his abdication, I am personally very grateful to him for his papacy.
I agree with you. I have read many of Pope Benedict XVI (Cardinal Ratzinger) books and they all inspired me to draw closer to God. He also wrote the current Catechism which is full of truths. His teachings encourage us to live a life of prayer (also referred to as Christ mysticism- the only way to communicate with God) and and when we are strengthened and renewed in our minds, the Holy Spirit leads us to good works. Pope Francis is a liberal pontiff who inspires people to implement social change to help the poor and sick worldwide. But, 1st and foremost, we need God. We need to experience the spiritual reality that God in Christ is always with us, forgives and loves us, "fear not, I have redeemed you, I have called you by your name and you are mine". God requires repentance and obedience to his Holy Word from all of us. "I will never leave you nor forsake you"
Thank you for your words of explanation. You always get through to me (a convert like yourself) in a way I understand clearly.
Absolutely IT IS JUST AND RIGHT.....
That we listen to the the Eternal Father Who said This is My Beloved Son ...listen to Him.
I am perplexed why someone do not mention meditating on the Luminous Mysteries
He keeps on promoting the Holy Rosary without the Luminous Mysteries and ignoring the Chaplet of Divine Mercy ( Jesus Christ demands Mercy....we must listen Him )
Thank you very much Dr. Scott Hahn for your excellent exposition.

Thank you Dr Hahn, this made me very happy. I am always particularly moved by the transfiguration, and love to hear insights like yours.💖
Dr. Hahn, God bless you. Your excitement over God's Word is infectious and I thank you for it.
JESUS SPEAKS IN PARABLES , HARD TO UNDERSTAND BUT YET WE UNDERSTAND ,
The Transfiguration is the third major feast of my church, the Orthodox Church, only coming after Pascha and Pentecost.
FANTASTIC!!!! Cold Chills all over my body.....Only problem is that I'll need to listen to this many times before it is truly absorbed,
Thanks for sharing this wonderful message.
I'm delighted to be here. Thank God for you and your wife. May God continue to guide you. He has used you in my life so beautifully.

Inspirational.. thanks Dr Scott
Thank you so much for your wonderful explanation on transfiguration! Really feeling blessed. Thanks.
A major feast day in the Orthodox Christian Church, celebrated on August the 6the.
Beautiful insight! Thank you.
Let us climb the high mountain
Let us climb a high mountain and sacrifice a goat.
No, climb higher mountain for fresh air.
Thanks Dr. Hahn. I have my traducter with me to understand your wonderful explanation.
It would be more easy if was there subtitles in Spanish.
Thank you !!🙏
@mark mercer Are you a "Jehova" witness?
@mark mercer And why do you speak about 144,000. ? .. That is the doctrine of the J.W.
@mark mercer And where are the 144,000 whom you say are gods?
@mark mercer Is what you write Catholic doctrine or is it a personal opinion?
And the 144,000, what's up?
@mark mercer
Then , If you say that it is Catholic doctrine give me the source; or in any case in which part of the catechism it says it literally as you write it ?
And what about the 144,000,
it is catholic doctrine too ?
When JH Cardinal Neumann came into the Church. Bishops broke out cigars and bourbon. When Hahn converted....50k came in with and after him and continue to do so...and I am one of them
This was so good.
Thank you! You are real life goals, you are filled with the Holy Spirit.
What an eye opener! Thank God that God does not leave us not knowing. Glorious teaching by a scholar and Christian gentleman. Serious and intentional. The Holy Sacrament.
It means there’s something awesome out there. Something else.
I wish I could understand and follow everything he is saying
Me too….but it’s not for trying even if I have to hear it a few times.
Thank you, Sir. Jesus Christ bless you, Sir Amen.
All Glory to the Father, the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. God will not share His glory with any other. That means not to any king, not to any earthly or spiritual authority, nor to any pope, nor even Mary. “I am the LORD, that is My Name; I will not give My glory to another, Nor My praise to idols”. Isaiah 42:8
Thanks for the insight..beautiful as always

I believe Our Lord, Jesus Christ, did indeed immediately return. Jesus had said he would leave, and would not be fouund, then he would return and could be "seen". He returned in the person of God, The Holy Spirit who would come in His name. Jesus returned in The person of The Holy Spirit, who would be acting only in the name of Jesus Christ. Alelluia, alelluia, Jesus has been among us since the beginning. Since the descent of Our Lord, The Holy Spirit.
Glory be to God Almighty. What a revelation🙌🙌🙌
Thank YOU JesusGODHOLYSPIRIT
Thank you for uncovering the real message of the transfiguration of Jesus.
In the bosom of the Father,
Ere the ages had begun,
Thou wast in the Father’s glory,
God’s unique begotten Son.
When to us the Father gave Thee,
Thou in person wast the same,
All the fulness of the Father
In the Spirit to proclaim.
By Thy death and resurrection,
Thou wast made God’s firstborn Son;
By Thy life to us imparting,
Was Thy duplication done.
We, in Thee regenerated,
Many sons to God became;
Truly as Thy many brethren,
We are as Thyself the same.
Once Thou wast the only grain, Lord,
Falling to the earth to die,
That thru death and resurrection
Thou in life may multiply.
We were brought forth in Thy nature
And the many grains became;
As one loaf we all are blended,
All Thy fulness to proclaim.
We’re Thy total reproduction,
Thy dear Body and Thy Bride,
Thine expression and Thy fulness,
For Thee ever to abide.
We are Thy continuation,
Thy life-increase and Thy spread,
Thy full growth and Thy rich surplus,
One with Thee, our glorious Head.
Funny, I also wondered why the church does not make a bigger deal of the Transfiguration as the priest mentioned it at mass last week!!! It is played down so much and you have made me realise how amazing it truly is♥️🙏
205k now! Thank you Dr. Hahn. We keep praying for the gospel message to continue to spread quietly, but powerfully.
Peter's problem was that, although he had no difficulty accepting a powerful Messiah, he could not accepting a suffering Messiah.
Wow!!! Listening to this for 2nd time, I ❤ it, its giving me goosebumps, it just makes so much sense🙏
This Transfiguration is the meeting of Witnesses on a mountain with the Manifestation of GOD to found confirmation of the truth of a Covenant about to be given. This was like that in Moses' day, thus he himself was a Witness here. At both events, GOD's Voice is heard from Heaven with a show of Glory. Because these three Apostles heard the Voice of GOD the FATHER from Heaven telling them to believe in the New Covenant about to be established, they could assure all of the very fact of the Covenant being that prophesied by Moses and Jeremiah. Those standing be JESUS, except Judas Iscariot (thus making it some there, not all) saw the beginning of the Kingdom that is the Catholic Church, as accords with what JESUS told Nicodemus the kingdom is: what we enter immediately at Baptism. And those least of the Kingdom are only greater than John the Baptist as partakers in the Divine Nature through the Eucharist he didn't get to partake in.
Moses ordered made a Tabernacle for the SHEKINAH of GOD. Peter wanted to make tabernacles to house CHRIST in Glory, and two witnesses of HIS to bear witness to HIM. It was a reasonable gesture. But a moment later there were no longer three figures of extreme Glory to meet the eyes of those they wanted to convince at designated stations of glorious evidence.
@mark mercer What makes you say that no one understands scriptures riddles? Is that what scripture tells you, or the Catholic church?
In any case, Jesus said that some of them standing there would not taste death before seeing the Son of Man coming in his kingdom. This was obviously fulfilled at the transfiguration.
AMEN
After minute 23:00. This is evangelization.
Hi I'm a cradle Catholic from India. This is how I see the Transfiguration. Jesus who is God came down to earth veiled as a human. His disciples followed him everywhere thinking he was a Godman or Prophet but when Jesus takes Peter, James and John up the mountain to meet Moses and Elijah he lifts up that human veil for a few moments and he starts glowing and He lets them see Him as He really is, as GOD. At that very moment they realise that the man they followed everywhere and ate and drank with was not a Godman but GOD HIMSELF.
That's why Peter starts trembling because now he knows he is standing in the Presence of God.
Jesus begins commissioning His Church on earth when Jesus asks his Apostles who they thought He was. Peter answers 'You are the Son of God.
Jesus says God told you this.
Then Jesus looks intently at Peter and says, ' You are Peter the Rock upon which I shall build my Church and the gates of hell shall never prevail against it'
Thus Jesus appoints Peter as the first Pope to lead his Church to whom he has delegated immense powers, so immense that He says to Peter, whichever sins you forgive on earth will be forgiven in heaven and whichever sins you retain on earth shall be retained in heaven. Thus Jesus himself instituted the Sacrament of Reconciliation.
Is there anything in this world to beat these powers.
@Collins Anosike that's exactly what I said. Jesus told Peter that God has revealed it to him.
@Enforcer when He came to earth, He came as man and lived like man, eating, drinking, partying, mourning among men so the Apostles thought he was probably a Prophet till He revealed himself as God to just three of his disciples at the Transfiguration. In that sense he took off the veil of the man he became for our salvation and let Peter, James and John see Him as He really is, as God just for a fleeting moment so that they would know Him in fullness of Truth.
I think that when Peter, talking about the three tabernacles, showed nervousness. I work in the field of criminal justice and people do this a lot when they don't know anything else to say or they just get extremely nervous.
Professor Hahn, thankyou for such a beautiful and deep teaching on the transfiguration and the blessed trinity.
I hope that you will read this message and that what I share with you will encourage you, like it encouraged me.
Recently, on the feast day of the transfiguration I was mediating on this passage of scripture, and I was given a beautiful revelation which I'd like to share with you.
This scripture mentions Peter James and John as being with our Lord and there is a hidden meaning here.
Each of these apostles names means something; as you know Peter is the ROCK on which Christ would build His CHURCH.
James is identified in scripture as the BROTHER of the Lord; and John is not only James' brother but also called in scripture the BELOVED disciple.
When we combine the meaning of their names we get the Church (or Rock) of Brotherly Love.
As you most likely know the Church of Brotherly love is literally the meaning of the name of the church of Philadelphia spoken to by our Lord in Revelation.
In Revelation Our Lord promises this church to be spared from the hour of trial coming to test the whole world; and the fact that Peter talks of building "booths" could very well point to the feast of booths in the Jewish calendar, as the time when this may happen.
The fact that you point out God's divine love as the essence of Who He is, as well as the driving force behind the gospel, is significant - especially when that gospel is meant to drive us to loving God and to love each other, the way that Christ first loved us.
Thankyou for reading,
May God continue to bless you.
As usual, Scott information overload
Haha. I know. I’m into it 20 minutes and I know I will be listening again and prob even again.
Shalom be with you. The Hebrew Bible says Peter, Jacob and his brother John and then it says "obey him" instead of listen to him. Glory to God that we have a chance to sit at their table
PLEASE GOD AND OUR LADY OF FATIMA CLAIM YOUR VICTORY SOON AND PROTECT US FROM ENEMIES ❤🌹🕊
Wow, thank you for Explaining so well what we have already in our hearts ❣🙏💒
May God continue to bless you always🔥🌹🌈
I read yesterday in Corinthians indeed salvation is a free gift by our Father through Christ Jesus by the Spirit.
