And there came a leper to him, beseeching him,
and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him,
If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.
Mark 1:40
The Healing of a Leper |
Preface
Thousands of sermons have been preached on the healing of a leper. This is just another one of those sermons preached that hopefully will bring out the plight of this leper in a way in which we can empathize as well as share his eventual joyful pardon and praise. This is also a sermon of the five Ps of the leper. These five Ps are the leper’s plight, perseverance, plea, pardon and praise. There are many lessons we can learn from this episode on the healing of a leper. Perhaps we can see sin in a new perspective and appreciate the Lord’s who is rich in mercy dispensing mercy to those who are willing to come to Him for mercy. So here is a short booklet from a sermon to edify the saints on how compassionate of our Saviour is to lost, hopeless and helpless sinners like us with spiritual leprosy we cannot see. May the Lord bless the preaching and studying of His holy words!
