When Jesus Touched the Leper

October 31, 2021

To be a leper was to live a life of solitude and suffering with little or no human contact. That is, until Jesus reached out with care and concern to touch a leper who desired to be healed.

Galatians Bible Companion
Get ready to fight the good fight against legalism in Galatians. When this letter was written, it defended the gospel of Christ from people who wanted to reduce it to rules. Not surprising, Galatians has provided the backbone for several great spiritual revivals around the world. Freedom, we learn, is a serious fight. Allow grace to revolutionize your own life through these seven lessons from Dr. J. Vernon McGee.

Why did Jesus come to this world? The answer is two-fold: His primary purpose was to redeem man; His second purpose was to reveal God. We see both of these purposes at work when Jesus attended a wedding.

The shepherd is a fitting portrait of the Lord Jesus Christ who cares for His own, protects them from dangers, and endures great hardship – even death – for the sake of His sheep.

Credit itself is not good or bad; it’s a tool you can control for good or which can control you when the debt becomes too overwhelming. Paul uses another kind of credit when dealing with reconciliation between a slave and his master.

(Galatians 5:16) As children we eventually learn how to walk on our own, but as Christians we need to learn to walk with the assistance of the Holy Spirit in our lives. Dr. McGee provides us with a clear understanding of how we can live this Christian life in the power of the Spirit.

The Christian life is not made of days of eternal sunshine; there are trials to face, struggles to overcome, and battles to be won. But how do we gain the victory in all these things?

As Jesus' journey to the cross draws near, He takes the disciples aside to talk about the events that are about to unfold, answer their questions, and calm their fears. Join them in the upper room, as the words our Lord spoke to them are relevant to us, too.

Paul says that we are looking for that blessed hope—that is, the day when Christ will come again. What will that be like, and when will it happen?

The four Gospels don’t give a complete picture of the day Jesus died. For that we must turn our attention to the Psalms and see the cross from the perspective of the One who was hanging on it.

King Solomon was the wisest, richest, and most honored king of his day. His fame spread far and wide. It even reached the Queen of Sheba, who determined to make a journey to find out for herself if all that she heard was true.

For almost a millennium, the children of Israel possessed Palestine. But because of their disobedience, they were taken away into captivity. That was the beginning of a new period in which Jerusalem would be “trampled by the Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.”

About Dr. J. Vernon McGee

John Vernon McGee was born in Hillsboro, Texas, in 1904. Dr. McGee remarked, "When I was born and the doctor gave me the customary whack, my mother said that I let out a yell that could be heard on all four borders of Texas!" His Creator well knew that he would need a powerful voice to deliver a powerful message.

After completing his education (including a Th.M. and Th.D. from Dallas Theological Seminary), he and his wife came west, settling in Pasadena, California. Dr. McGee's greatest pastorate was at the historic Church of the Open Door in downtown Los Angeles, where he served from 1949 to 1970.

He began teaching Thru the Bible in 1967. After retiring from the pastorate, he set up radio headquarters in Pasadena, and the radio ministry expanded rapidly. Listeners never seem to tire of Dr. McGee's unique brand of rubber-meets-the-road teaching, or his passion for teaching the whole Word of God.

On the morning of December 1, 1988, Dr. McGee fell asleep in his chair and quietly passed into the presence of his Savior.
