Our Bibles consistently use the noun ‘Transfiguration’ with regard to Jesus but ‘Transformation’ with regard to the Christian – and yet it is one and the same verb, transliterated ‘metamorphosed,’ that is used in those places in the original text. Why is that so? Is there an important difference between them? And why does the noun ‘metamorphosis’ which is familiar to us never occur in the New Testament? And yet is there some connection between the Transfiguration of Jesus and the Transformation of the Christian?

Hywel R. Jones presents answers to these questions in this book. In the course of doing so he shows how the divine can penetrate the human without destroying it as in the Person of Christ, and how the human can become conformed to the divine without its ceasing to be human as in the case of the Christian. That kind of metamorphosis accords and exalts the Christian gospel over against the humanism of our culture, whether secularised or spiritualised.

There is a distinction between God and Man which will never be obliterated but preserved for ever – even in the glorified Christ in whom they are joined. But communion between the God-Man and his believing people will result in each Christian being fully conformed to the perfect humanity of Christ while retaining his or her own individuality. It will not result in a faceless absorption into the divine but face to face communion with the triune God for ever.

‘The transfiguration of Christ shows how the divine can penetrate the human without destroying it. The transformation of the believer shows how the human can become conformed to the divine without its ceasing to be human. This is the ultimate metamorphosis that is compatible with Christian truth.’ — HYWEL R. JONES

Linking the Transfiguration of Christ to our transformation as believers in Christ is intriguing to say the least. I’ll confess that I never thought of the connection before I came across this book. The connection isn’t fabricated as both spring from the same word in the New Testament...This book addresses more scholarly concerns than I am used to seeing in a BOT volume, but it is an interesting study. I always appreciate someone who can open the Bible and show me something I have never put together before. That is what happens here. Jimmy R. Reagan

Impressive Sound Deadening Solution with Enhanced Audio Quality
Model: NewSLS50_52
I recently purchased the Siless 50 mil (1.3mm) 52 sqft Car Sound Deadening mat, and I am delighted with the results it has delivered. Right from the start, I was impressed with the packaging, which ensured the product arrived in perfect condition. One of the standout features of this sound deadening mat is its ease of use. It was a breeze to cut and modify according to my specific needs. Whether I needed to cover specific areas or customize the size, the mat accommodated my requirements effortlessly. This flexibility made the installation process a breeze. The Siless Sound Deadening mat has proven to be highly effective in reducing outside noise within my vehicle. With just a half cabin install, I noticed a significant reduction of approximately 10 decibels, making my driving experience much quieter and more comfortable. The mat acted as a reliable barrier against external noise, allowing me to enjoy a more peaceful ride. Furthermore, the sound quality from my vehicle's audio system experienced a noticeable improvement. The Siless mat effectively dampened vibrations and minimized resonance, resulting in cleaner and more refined audio output. The mat's thickness of 50 mil (1.3mm) ensures optimal sound absorption, contributing to its effectiveness in creating a quieter and more enjoyable driving environment. I can now appreciate the full range of tones and enjoy a more immersive music experience during my drives. Overall, I highly recommend the Siless 50 mil Car Sound Deadening mat for anyone seeking a reliable and effective solution to reduce noise and enhance audio quality in their vehicle. The easy cutting and modifying process, along with the excellent packaging, contribute to a seamless installation experience. With a significant reduction in outside noise and an improvement in sound system performance, this sound deadening mat has exceeded my expectations.

Good quality sound deadener at a good price.
Model: NewSLS50_52
Quality sound deadening that adheres to body panels well. You can easily hear the vibration reduction after just the first piece by tapping on the body panel before and after.

BUY THIS ONE!
Model: NewSLS50_52
This is one of the good ones. There are other brands just as good, and manny brands are worse, but this handles well, rolls down easily, doesn't come off at all easily, and adapts to dips and curves like a champ. Appropriately heavy and dead, I'm happy with the way it smothers panel resonances and even at muffling direct sound, like a big hand over my Uncle Harry's eternally noisy mouth. You can rip the foil but you have to work hard at doing that. Remember to buy a brayer; you can roll overlaps nice and thin. Also remember to pre-wipe the sheet metal with a decent solvent like acetone or Stoddard/Varsol. It should last forever.
