From the Pulpit...

In this message Pastor Matt continues our study in the book of Matthew, where we see a centurion asking Jesus to heal his servant. The Roman leader cared for his servant and asked Jesus to speak a word and his servant would be healed. Christ marveled at the man's faith as he acknowledged that Jesus had all power and authority, even to heal. Christ heals the servant that very hour. Additionally, we see Christ explaining that even Gentiles who accept Christ would be part of the kingdom of heaven and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. However, those who did not follow Christ would be cast into outer darkness with great weeping and gnashing of teeth.
