Summary

Jesus heals a centurion’s servant, a man who is near death. The religious people still do not understand that it is all about grace, not works or merit. Being a moral, upstanding citizen—like the centurion—will not earn you forgiveness or salvation. Even though the centurion was an honorable man, he still needed to place his faith in Jesus; he did just that and Jesus was amazed at his faith. Jesus is a greater warrior worthy of the worship of all soldiers; we want them to know, love, and serve Jesus, which is why we have a Military Ministry at Mars Hill.

0:49.5	If you don't have a Bible, you're certainly welcome to pick one up for free on your way out and where we find
0:55.3	ourselves in the story is that Jesus has been preaching and teaching and healing
1:00.2	performing miracles dealing with troubled people, casting out demons, and he has been essentially

1:15.0	Small town, maybe 50, 100 people,
1:18.0	small homes, 4, 600, 600 square feet,
1:21.0	fishing down the hillside toward the sea of Galilee, farming up over the
1:26.6	fertile plains. A lot of people who are not well educated, they're not financially
1:31.9	prosperous, these are simple hard-working regular poor people from that day in era
1:40.3	And what we're going to see today is that as Jesus is on a bit of a preaching and teaching tour,
