Phoenix First Church of the Nazarene

You see, the real problem with Peter's suggestion is not that he was trying to house or contain god's glory, but that he was keeping Jesus at the same level of importance as Elijah and Moses rather than seeing him elevated above the patriarchs. You see, it is at this moment, just as Peter is exploring the possibility of of building these three tents, that he is interrupted by a booming voice and a cloud from heaven that literally catapults him and the other disciples face down into the dirt with fear.
