07 12 Luke 17.11-19 What is that everyone needs but no one deserves? It’s what 10 lepers ask for. It’s mercy. Only the Lord can give it. Otherwise we all deserve to die. In time, if nothing could be done, these 10 lepers would die. As Jesus was passing through town one day on His way to Jerusalem they stop Him and ask for mercy. They wanted to be cleansed of their accursed disease and the inevitability of death. Jesus saw them and moved with compassion for them, healed them as they went to see the priest. But only one came back, and Scripture tells us he was grateful and worshipful. That day he received more than physical healing for his body. He also received spiritual healing for his soul. Jesus said it was his faith. Have you been cleansed of sin?
