Under Authority: The Centurions of Scripture - Our Essential Ensample
Matthew 8:10 “When Jesus heard it , he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. ” King James Version (KJV) Under Authority: The Centurions of Scripture - Our Essential Ensample All scripture quoted from the King James Bible. Thesis The King James Bible never commands a soldier to lay down his post. Every centurion it names is shown with honour: one for faith greater than any in Israel, one for confessing the Son of God at the cross, one as the first Gentile household received into the church, and others for protecting the apostle Paul. A Christian who serves under rightful authority, as the centurion did, is not committing sin by his service. He stands in the line of the very men Jesus Christ commended.
