A Samaritan Gives Thanks

A Samaritan Gives Thanks

Excerpt

Only one of the ten men was grateful enough to come first to Jesus and thank Him for His merciful gift of healing. (See Ps. 107:8, 15, 21, and 31.) But the astounding thing is that this man was a Samaritan! Imagine a Samaritan giving thanks to a Jew! But because he did, this man received an even greater gift: he was saved from his sins. “Your faith has made you well” can be translated, “Your faith has saved you” (see 7:50, NKJV). Physical healing is a great blessing, but it ends at death; while the blessing of eternal life lasts forever.
