     | 8,938 views

    The centurion exhibited faith - he took Jesus at his word. Why do we Christians have such problems in doing the same?

    God’s ways are not our ways As I looked at our Gospel passage today, I was struck by one simply sentence 4 When they came to Jesus, they pleaded earnestly with him, “This man deserves to have you do this, 5 because he loves our nation and has built our synagogue.” The Jews ...read more
