In his usual thorough and logical style, Bullinger takes the reader first to the historical reality and interpretation of The Transfiguration, before looking at some spiritual applications and practical considerations based on Romans 12:2 and 2 Corinthians 13:8. He finishes with a discussion of the disciples statement that it was good to be there and applied that to Christians living today.

Ethelbert W. Bullinger D.D. (1837-1913) was a direct descendent of Heinrich Bullinger, the great Swiss reformer who carried on Zwingli s work after the latter had been killed in war. E. W. Bullinger was brought up a Methodist but sang in the choir of Canterbury Cathedral in Kent. He trained for and became an Anglican minister before becoming Secretary of the Trinitarian Bible Society. He was a man of intense spirituality and made a number of outstanding contributions to biblical scholarship and broad-based evangelical Christianity. This booklet, which is also available as an eBook from Amazon Kindle and Apple iBookstore, originally appeared as three articles in the magazine Things to Come (1906/07). It has been reprinted here from those articles without change and included the author s views, at the time he wrote, on the hope of the Church which is the Body of Christ. Bullinger was later to change that view and see that the hope of this Church, spoken of as The Body of Christ in Ephesians and Colossians, should be distinguished from the hope of the Acts period, during which 1 Thessalonians 4 was written. Thus the so-called rapture was replaced by looking for Christ s appearing. These later views of his were expressed in a series of Editorials under the heading The Lord hath Spoken which appeared in Things to Come from 1911 to 1913. They were later published posthumously in his book The Foundations of Dispensational Truth, a reprint of which is available from the Open Bible Trust, and which is also available as an Book. Other works of Bullinger published by the Open Bible Trust, available as paperbacks or eBooks, can be seen on the website of the Open Bible Trust.
