NOW ONE OF THEM......WHEN HE SAW THAT
HE WAS HEALED RETURNED AND WITH A LOUD
VOICE GLORIFIED GOD.
LUKE 17:15

OUT NUMBERED
BUT WHO GIVES A STITCH!
|
One of them not the lot but one only,
returned, there was ten to start with but only one of them was grateful for what God had
done. I believe the stats are still the same. I believe the ratio, numbers are still the
same. We live in a world of ungrateful people....men, women and youth....(click here).
In the last days perilous times will come and men and women and youth will be
unthankful/ungrateful, Father tells us by holy ghost to turn away from such
peoples.........2 Timothy 3:2.....(click here)
With a loud voice the one grateful leper glorified God!..this leper was no
whispering Jack, he was excited, grateful and needed no bus to pick him up on Sunday,
needed no follow-up, needed not the 55 steps and tapes of encouragement pack neither did
he give a hoot who went with him. The one grateful leper was out numbered 9 to one but
this fazed not the humble one. Numbers were not in the grateful lepers vocabulary. The one
grateful leper needed not the pigeon pair to go on or the seats all full in the church
before he attended....(Click here)
His humility brought for him gratitude and his gratitude brought for him humility and all
because he did what the master builder Jesus the Christ said, by the grace of God. The
humble are grateful and the grateful are humble. Nature is content with little, grace is
content with anything and lust is content with nothing you can never please lustful
men and women and youth.....1 Timothy 6:6-8.
Are you one who backslaps the ungrateful week after week?....are you one who
forever casts your pearls before ungrateful swine?....are you one who thinks that
dragging, tricking and using draw cards to get people into pews is the power of holy
ghost....well you are deceived in the first degree.....(Click here)
Churches, their leaders and the congregations begging people to attend their religious
programs are covering the earth today but the holy remnant know that deriares on seats,
money in bags and business savvy programs will never make for the convicting power of a
holy spirit....(Click here) and (Click again).
Jesus said to the grateful leper...your faith has made you well/whole. This tells
us that the entire ten were cleansed but only one was made whole. This is if you like an
analogy of the ones who come to Jesus and the ones who come to Jesus and then go on in the
truth, light, obedience. The only people that will be made whole, end up being the
children of God, saints and joint - heirs with Messiah are the ones who continue on in the
truth, the light, in obedience to Jesus the Christ.....Romans 11:22, Hebrews 2:3,
Hebrews 5:9.
If you are grateful, humble and Jesus is your God/Ruler, I reckon I will see you there in
glory, the kingdom of Jesus the Christ ...amen.
