Scripture Post #529: *WHERE ARE THE NINE?*

Luke 17:

17 And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? 

18 There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger.

19 And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.

Luke 17:11: "And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee."

V. 12: "And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off:"

V. 13: "And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us."

V. 14: "And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed."

V. 15: "And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God,"

V. 16: "And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan."

V. 17: "And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine?"

V. 18: "There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger."

V. 19: "And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole."

Don't forget to tell GOD "Thank YOU!" When you don't thank GOD for what HE's done for you, it can come off as you just using GOD for what you want, then moving on your way. That's ugly! We must give our GOD thanks. HE's worthy to be praised!

Psalm 105:1: "O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people."
