LEPERS CORRESPONDING ACTION !

LEPERS CORRESPONDING ACTION ! I don't say these things to keep anyone who has faith from believing God for divine healing. If religion denominations would have its way, they would tell you that these things died when the apostles died; or God doesn't do miracles anymore. But I say these things to keep some from going beyond Their Faith and throwing their away, do it only because someone told them to do it. Or because someone prophesied that God said to do it. Let me give you another example from the Bible. In the 17th chapter of Luke, you find the story where 10 lepers came to Jesus. They were standing afar off. They were required by the Mosaic law to stay about 100 yards away from the crowd. "And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go show yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed." (Luke 17:13--14). Now, When Jesus saw them, He said, "Go show your sales to the priests." Now, what kind of an answer was that ? The only reason they were to show themselves to the priests was if they had been cleansed. That was the law of that dispensation of time. If you had been cleansed, if you know longer have leprosy, you will go show yourself to the priest and he would pronounced you clean. Jesus did not pray for them. He just said, "Go show yourselves to the priests." The Bible says, ". . . As they went, they were cleansed (V.14). The Going was the corresponding action. They were obedient to the words of Jesus: they were acting on the words of Jesus. This was as far as they could go with their corresponding action at that point, and Jesus required it, even though they didn't have the manifestation it that time. They could have said, "But, Jesus, we're not cleansed yet." If it would have been some folks that I know, they probably would have went by with they saw to our felt. But the 10 men with leprosy, they acted on the words of Jesus. It makes a difference when you act on the words of Jesus. "Go show yourselves to the priests." And as they went, they were cleansed. However, I believe it is possible that nine of them lost their healing. "And Jesus answering said, were there not ten cleansed ? But where are the nine ? There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger. And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: by faith hath made the whole." (Luke 17:17--19).
