We welcome you now to a true church perspective with Pastor G. Craig Lewis.

Luke 17 and 11 says, and it came to pass as he went to Jerusalem, Jesus, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.

And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off.

Now, y'all understand leprosy was the flesh-eating disease back then.

It was highly contagious, airborne by touch, everything.

So they had to keep a certain distance outside of the city.

And in order to, it was like quarantine.

In order to get back in the city, they had to go to the

priest. The priest had to examine them and tell them, you know, whether or not they could reenter

civilization, because of course, there was no cure for this disease back then. And, and they

stood afar off and they lifted up their voice and said

Jesus master have mercy on us and when he saw them he said unto them go show yourselves

unto the priest and it came to pass that what as they what as? As they went, they were what? And one of them when he saw that he was

healed, turned back and with a loud voice glorified God, fell down on his face at Jesus's feet,

giving him thanks. And he was a Samaritan. So the Jews didn't even like them.

Jesus said, man, but wasn't it ten of y'all? Where are the nine? There are not found that

return to give God glory, save this stranger or this enemy of the Jews. And he said unto them arise. It said unto him arise. Go thy way.

Thy faith has done what? And you got to understand. When he says thy faith has made thee hold,

he's not talking about the leprosy. He's talking about this. Dude, you got more than healed.

You are made whole. Be thankful for the things you look somebody

say be thankful for the things you have be thankful for the things you have we must always give

thanks to God for all that he has allowed us to possess.
