Text Quoted in Spirit of Prophecy |
[Matt. 8:1-14, quoted.] There are those who have not honored the cause of God but have the deformity of sin revealed in their lives and in their character; but even these must be borne with, remembering how Jesus bears with us and how wicked and sinful we have been and yet He bears with us still. {12MR 289.2} |
“I represent the power of Rome, and my soldiers recognize my authority as supreme. So do You represent the power of the infinite God, and all created things obey Your word. You can command the disease to depart, and it shall obey You. Just say the word, and my servant will be healed.” { MHH 29.7 } “‘As you have believed,’” Christ said, “‘let it be done for you.’ And his servant was healed that same hour.” Matthew 8:13. { MHH 29.8 } |

Still the Saviour keeps on His way, and the centurion comes in person to complete the message, saying, “Neither thought I myself worthy to come unto Thee,” “but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.” Verse 7; Matthew 8:8, 9. { MH 63.4} |
