The Book of Luke: Come Back to Jesus, Luke 17: 11-19, Pastor Kyle Fellows
Sermon Notes: April 26, 2026 On the way to Jerusalem he was passing along between Samaria and Galilee. And as he entered a village, he was met by ten lepers, who stood at a distance and lifted up their voices, saying, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us.” When he saw them he said to them, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went they were cleansed. Then one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice; and he fell on his face at Jesus’ feet, giving him thanks. Now he was a Samaritan. Then Jesus answered, “Were not ten cleansed? Where are the nine? Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?” And he said to him, “Rise and go your way; your faith has made you well.” Luke 17:11-19 . We all have something in our lives that makes us feel like we’re on the outside looking in. That's what these lepers are experiencing prior to this story. Leprosy meant complete exclusion in Jewish culture. This is a picture of all of us: because of sin, we are all on the outside, and all have a need we can't fulfill ourselves. The lepers in this story understood that. They refer to Jesus as "Master"--using a word that meant "one who has authority over all else." Even what they ask for specifically--not just "healing," but "mercy," shows their understanding of their complete and utter dependency on Jesus. Jesus doesn't touch them or heal them as an immediate response--instead he commands them to go to the priests, and they respond to that by submitting to his command, understanding that because of his authority the command superseded all other circumstances. The miracle met them along the way--"as they went." By having obedience and faith, they moved before understanding. This is true of our lives--Jesus often asks us to do something before it makes sense. And we must go, and we meet God along the way. Once they were healed, only the Samaritan--the one most on the outside of Jewish culture--who came back. Oftentimes, it is those who are most on the "outside" who are most receptive to mercy. And this Samaritan fully gives himself over to the praise he offered God--"praising with a loud voice" and "falling on his face." This is the posture we should adopt in our own heart when we express thanks to God for his mercy and blessings. Like this Samaritan leper, we should not separate the gifts we receive from the ones who gives it. We should not be like the nine who never returned to offer thanks. It is easy, when we ask something of God and receive it, to get caught up in living our own lives and forget the one who gave it to us. Don't forget God's mercy and be lulled into a life of forgetful comfort without taking a moment to say thank you to the Master for his Mercy. Jesus tells the thankful Samaritan his faith has made him "well," using the same word the Bible uses for salvation--all ten of the men received healing in their body, but the Samaritan received healing and deliverance for something deeper than his skin. His soul was touched.

Transactional faith, like the nine healed lepers, accepts the gift but ignores the giver of the healing, treating Jesus as a service provider. Relational faith, exemplified by the returning Samaritan, seeks a relationship with the Master, moving from asking to giving thanks. This shift marks the difference between a "half-finished" faith that heals the body and a complete faith that saves the soul. Sermon Outline @ http://bible.com/events/49564995

The Ten Lepers: Luk 17:11-19 And it came to pass, as he went to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee. And as he entered into a certain village, there met him ten men that were lepers, which stood afar off: And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. 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. And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God, And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan. 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: thy faith hath made thee whole.
Grateful, Thankful and Blessed P.1 Luke 17:11-19

Often we feel emotionally and spiritually drained. We feel dry and powerless where nothing seems to defeat our hopelessness and loneliness. But there is hope! When expressed correctly, GRATITUDE can serve as a weapon against the darkness surrounding us. This message is the launch of a fourteen day gratitude campaign where we will daily shift our focus from ourselves, our problems, our obstacles and our issues, learning to use gratitude in as a lifestyle

We can develop a lifestyle of thankfulness by intentionally building a spiritual practice of gratitude and learning to express spontaneous appreciation throughout each day.

Life's circumstances and situations weigh on us. We know where to go when life gets complicated. Our text is about the healing of the ten lepers. We all remember the story that Jesus healed them and sent them on their way. Nine of the ten healed men walked away, and only one returned to give thanks. Looking closer at the text, we see that is not how it happened. The Bible says that these ten men called to Jesus from afar off. They were lepers, so they had to keep their distance. The Bible says they lifted their voice to ask for help. Jesus didn’t heal them. He told them to go show themselves to the priest. The healing didn’t happen until they obeyed and began to go on their way. Jesus did not heal them immediately. He told them to go to the priest, but nothing had changed as far as they could see. They asked for healing, and Jesus told them to leave. They had to have the faith to turn and walk away. Before the miracle, they had to obey. The Bible says, “And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.” Something happened as they went. There is a difference between walking away doubting and walking away in faith. The road of obedience and faith can often be lonely.
