' Jesus Is now on His way to Jeruaa- I Jem where He will be offered up for the Bins of the people. It was fitting that He should pass through the coun- j try of the Samaritans, for He wus the Savior of ull men. Ou this occasion He came In touch with u colony of ten lepers, and Hla healing of tlieiu ex hibits the condition of human nature and the workings of His divine grace. j I. Thsir Awful Affliction (v. 12). Tliey were lepers. Leprosy Is a con- j taglous disease which rots off the members of the body and eventuates In dnath. It may be unnoticed In the blood of the person for years. It Is ' of such a foul nature th#t the one j thus afflicted Is cast out from society. | This segregation was In accordance with the Mosaic law (Lev* 13 :4fl). It was a kind of Naaiuan quarantine measure. Leprosy has always been regarded as a type of sin, even at times visited upon people for some sin. Examples, the leprosy of tjehn/.l (n Klngß 6); Miriam (Num. 32) ; Uz-j zlah (II Kings 15:0). Bin has come Into the world and flows from generation to generation through the racial , stream, po that all are slnnera (Horn. 5:12). -Though sin may be hidden, It eventually breaks'out and destroys the body. Evidences of this are seen ott every hand. There Is no need of Itlhle proof of Its reality. 11. Their Cry for Mercy (v. IS). Tliey were in greiit need. No hu man help was available. They had somehow heard how Jesus had healed * some lepers. Where there Is real heal ing It Is. bound to be noised about. This aroused faith In them. "Faith Cometh by hearing, and hearing by the >Vord of Ood" (Horn. 10:17). As Ho came their way they called for mercy. It Is the privilege of all sinners to call upon Jesus Christ for mercy.

" * ■ Before the lepers werd healed they were to show themselves to the priest*, according to the Mosaic law (Lev. 14:1-82). A« they went In faith they were healed. While Ood goes be fore In the work of salvation, yet He demands of the sinner faith. Faith la j the cause of His action. Activity on | the sinner's part Is necessary so thaf \ God's grace can flow into him. Faith | expresses Itself In action. By this | means the divine power and human need are united. The only faith need ed Is for the sinner to realize the heal ing power of Christ, and as this Is acted upon there Is the consequent In crease which results In complete sal vation Cleansing Is realized through obedience. , ' IV. The Gratitude of tha Ons (vr. in, 16). Perceiving that he was healed of his leprosy, the Samaritan turned back and with a loud voice glorified God. He even fell down on his face and gave thanks. The one least expected I to show gratitude for this great mercy was the one who sincerely expressed | It. I V. The Gratitude o# the Nine (w. I 17-10). Presumably they were Jews. The I very ones who should have been roost | grateful did not show any apirecla ' tlon. They were content to get much ! from Christ without giving Hlro any thing. He expects thoae who experi ence His salvation to give Him their I 1 love and gratitude. The Lord la hurt when saved sinners go off with the | blessing of sulvatlon as though they had stolen it. Many take all they can get from Christ and give nothing in re -1 turn. All the blessings of civilization | are ours through Christ, yet how fjew I thank Him for them. The proportion of those who arc ungrateful for the j blessings which Christ brought Is pep | haps nine to one. The fact that grati tude was expressed by a Samaritan shows how often we are shamed by the devotion of those less favored than ourselves.
