10 Lepers, Day of the Lord (Part 1)

The Life and Teachings of Christ
The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg

In this discussion, Steve Gregg reflects on the story of the ten lepers healed by Jesus in the Bible. He explains that the term "leper" was used somewhat loosely in biblical times and did not always refer to a specific skin disease. Gregg notes that the racial differences between the lepers were eclipsed by their common suffering, and they were all equally ostracized from their homes and communities. He also highlights the importance of gratitude and thanksgiving in faith, reminding listeners that while faith accesses the power of healing, it is not the power itself. Lastly, Gregg discusses Jesus' response to the Pharisees' question about the coming of the kingdom of God and cautions his listeners to remember the lessons of Lot's wife.
