The Man With Such Great Faith! Luke 7:1-10

Centurion  Captain of 100 men in the Roman Army  One of four centurions in the N. T. At the cross (Matt 27:54) Cornelius (Acts 10:1-2, 22) Julius (Acts 27:1, 42-43)  All seem to be men of noble qualities

 Every man is really 3 men: The man his enemies think he is The man his friends think he is The man he thinks he is  A fourth man: The man he REALLY is

What the Neighbors Thought  Based upon what they had seen  They approved of him  What would our neighbors say about us? In matters what others think (1 Pet 2:11-12) We are to be lights (Phil 2:15) We are to be a good neighbor (Matt 5:16)

What He Thought  Based on the examination of his heart A sincere self estimate He knew himself better than they  Great humility (Matt 23:12; 1 Cor 2:11)  He was judging himself by a higher standard (2 Cor 10:12)  A thorough examination will profit all of us 2 Corinthians 13:5; 1 Corinthians 11:28)

What Jesus Knew About Him  The Lord “marveled”  This man’s “great” faith (v9) Some have “little” faith (Matt 8:26) Some have “dead” faith (James 2:17)  What about your faith? Would the Lord marvel at how great it is?  Heb 11:6; 10:39; Gal 5:6

 Each estimate of the centurion was true from each person’s viewpoint  However – it is the Lord’s approval that counts
