Is it possible that the plumber forgot to turn on the water supply to the dishwasher? That stinks.
He charged them that they should tell no man what things they had seen, till the Son of Man was risen from the dead."
Mark 9:9
Say nothing until the Son of man is risen in you - until the life of the risen Christ so dominates you that you understand what the historic Christ taught. When you get to the right state on the inside, the word which Jesus has spoken is so plain that you are amazed you did not see it before. You could not understand it before, you were not in the place in disposition where it could be borne.Our Lord does not hide these things; (but) they are unbearable until we get into a fit condition of spiritual life. "I have yet many things to say unto you, but you cannot bear them now." There must be communion with His risen life before a particular word can be born by us. Do we know anything about the impartation of the risen life of Jesus? The evidence that we do is that His word is becoming interpretable to us. God cannot reveal anything to us if we have not His Spirit.
An obstinate outlook will effectually hinder God from revealing anything to us. If we have made up our minds about a doctrine, the light of God will come no more to us on that line; we cannot get it. This obtuse stage will end immediately [when] His resurrection life has its way with us.
"Tell no man . . " - so many tell what they saw on the mount of transfiguration. They have had the vision and they testify to it, but (their lives) do not tally with it, the Son of Man is not yet risen in them. I wonder when He is going to be formed (more fully) in you and in me?
