The Faith of the Centurion Encounters with Jesus

The Character of the Centurion He was meek He was considerate He was compassionate Matthew 8:5-13

The Character of Mercy Simplicity 5 And when Jesus entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, imploring Him, Matthew 8:5 (NASB95) Matthew 8:5-13 Simplicity

7 Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.” The Character of Mercy 7 Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.” Matthew 8:7 (NASB95) Matthew 8:5-13 Simplicity

The Character of Authority He had confidence in the power of the word of Christ as much as the presence of Christ Matthew 8:5-13

The Character of Authority Any attempt to lessen or degrade the authoritative power of God’s word is an attempt to lessen His authority over our lives Matthew 8:5-13

The Character of Authority “The spirit of God has moved us to this, we are not going to be bound up in 2000 year old scriptures” - Gene Robinson, openly Gay Episcopalian Bishop Matthew 8:5-13

Understanding Authority He saw a parallel between the way he commanded soldiers and the way Christ commanded sickness. Matthew 8:5-13

Understanding Authority He understood that only those who can take orders are allowed to give orders Matthew 8:5-13

Understanding Authority 10 For it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things, and through whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to perfect the author of their salvation through sufferings. Hebrews 2:10 (NASB95) Matthew 8:5-13

Understanding Authority 8 Although He was a Son, He learned obedience from the things which He suffered. 9 And having been made perfect, He became to all those who obey Him the source of eternal salvation, Hebrews 5:7–9 (NASB95) Matthew 8:5-13

Understanding Authority 5 Likewise you younger people, submit yourselves to your elders. Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for “God resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble.” 6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, 1 Peter 5:5–6 (NKJV) Matthew 8:5-13
