"When they [the three disciples] had lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only."
The account above is in reference to Christ's transfiguration on the mountain--when Moses and Elijah joined the Savior and the three apostles (Peter, James, and John). After the encounter with the heroes of the Old Covenant church (Moses and Elijah), the three dis-
ciples saw "no one but Jesus only."
Why? Because everything Moses and Elijah did and wrote pointed di-
rectly and only to Jesus. And, in comparison with the Messiah, Moses and Elijah were "small potatoes." Let all faithful churchmen look to Christ alone for their souls' help and salvation. No one else can do what He alone is capable of doing.
