Of the ten healed, only one came back and gave thanks to Jesus. A Samaritan, who had imperfect faith and belief.

Oh God, please help me! Even coming from the most immoral, ungodly person in our society is not all together unfamiliar. We hear people using the name of God all the time, but especially when there is crisis. It is in these times when even the vilest people turn to God because if He doesn’t help ...read more

On his way he travels between the ...read more
I have heard many sermons on the Ten Lepers but none on the ceremony of cleansing defined in the Law of Moses! What an amazing ceremony it is and this sermon only touches on a few of the points. What a well of truth is in the OT as it points to Jesus!
