Let us build three tabernacles

And it came to pass, as they departed from him, Peter said unto Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here: and let us make three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said. (Luke 9:33)

At this point Peter was not hearing from the Lord. He did not know what he was talking about.

How often has it been true that people, being moved by a religious experience, have set out to build tabernacles, not knowing what they were doing.

Did Peter think he was going to shut up Jesus, Moses, and Elijah in some kind of booth? Not too far from them the disciples were struggling with the demons that had bound a child.

The Lord did not come to earth to be put in someone’s box. He came to release the prisoners of Satan. The son of the Kingdom listens to the Lord for His directions.

The son of the wicked one rushes about in the efforts of the flesh, not knowing what he is doing. Sooner or later he will come into conflict with the son of the Kingdom and attempt to destroy the true work of God.
