MOVIE ABOUT CENTURION AND JESUS SERIES

The Centurion and the dying servant never looked into Jesus’ eyes they never felt His loving touch.

And I say to one, “Go,” and he goes and to another, “Come,” and he comes and to my servant, “Do this,” and he does it’” (Luke 7:6-8). But say the word, and my servant will be healed. For I also am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under me. And when He was already not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to Him, saying to Him, ‘Lord, do not trouble Yourself, for I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof. Therefore I did not even think myself worthy to come to You. Jesus was on His way to the Roman Centurion’s house, but He never saw the Centurion or the servant. They pleaded with Jesus saying that the Centurion even loved their nation and had built them a synagogue ( see Luke 7:4,5). It’s interesting that these Jewish elders told Jesus that this man (a Roman, no less!) was worthy and deserving. The elders went to Jesus and begged and pleaded earnestly. Nonetheless, the Roman Centurion sent Jewish elders he used his authority and they obeyed.

Romans despised Jews, and the Jewish elders hated Jesus. Think about how amazing that is - that he would send Jewish elders to Jesus to ask for a miracle. Verse 3 continues, “So when he heard about Jesus, he sent elders of the Jews to Him, pleading with Him to come and heal his servant.” The Centurion went to the trouble to ask elders of the Jews to plead with Jesus to come and heal his servant. Why else would he have asked Jesus to come heal his servant? Verse 3 says, “So when he heard about Jesus….” What did he hear? The Bible doesn’t say, but we can imagine he had heard about the miracles that Jesus had performed. Though he had a lot of power, authority, and prestige as a Centurion, he did not have power and authority over the sickness and death that was trying to take his servant. Death, you cannot have her.”īut this is the situation of not having authority that the Roman Centurion found himself in. You have no authority here! This one will live longer. And still today, He is doing miracles and meeting death at its intimidating presence and saying, “No, not this time. There is only One who has power and authority over death - and His name is Jesus.

How many rock stars and movie stars, millionaires and billionaires, and rulers and leaders had great authority over others, but when sickness or death came to them, they had no power over it. He had no power over this sickness that had taken his servant to a point of death. But when death threatened his beloved servant, the Centurion had no authority. This Roman Centurion must have worked very hard and earned the respect of those over him to have this position of authority. No one gets this kind of authority over 100 men by accident. This Centurion - a high-ranking Roman soldier - had 100 men under his authority. The story begins, “And a certain centurion’s servant, who was dear to him, was sick and ready to die” (Luke 7:2). I want to write to you this month about a story found in the Gospel of Luke that I believe will help us find many answers to our questions and needs today. And THANK YOU to everyone who is taking part in the School of Cinderella through my Facebook page.
