Visitor Card and drop it in one of the offering
boxes as you leave or scan this code to go directly to our website

you feel more comfortable having your infant with you during
the service, the last row in the Auditorium will be reserved for
parents with small children. There is a private room for nursing
mothers across the hall from the Auditorium with a rocking chair,
changing table and portable crib. For your convenience, it also

Giving Update
THE MINISTRY OF SALEM HEIGHTS CHURCH
The ministry of Salem Heights Church is funded entirely by the
generous giving of Gods people. You will notice that we do not
pass the offering plate; however, there are offering boxes in the
back of the auditorium. We have done this so no one gives out
of compulsion. We believe from the Word of God that the Spirit
of God will lead people towards giving back to God of their first
fruits. ...God loves a cheerful giver (2 Cor. 9:7) and we know
He blesses those who take His Word seriously in every regard.
Thank you for prayerfully supporting Salem Heights financially as
we desire to reach the lost and disciple the Saints.

LUKE
Part 21
Luke 5:12-16

Cleansed, the Correct Word

Presented by
Pastor Matt MacCollin
March 29, 2015

Jesus worked miracles. Throughout the gospel accounts we see

that Jesus defied natural laws. He changed water into wine. He
walked on water. He calmed violent storms, and He even took
a boat full of men over three miles in a split second. All to say,
Jesus could manipulate matter. Jesus fed thousands from five
loaves and two fish!
Jesus worked miracles, as Jesus also knew what people were
thinking. From His own disciples, to Pharisees who were thinking
negative or hateful things, Jesus could call them out for their
specific thoughts.
Jesus knew things He shouldnt know.
Nathan was convinced of His deity because Jesus proclaimed
that He saw Nathan sitting under the fig tree. What? It blew
Nathans mind. Well get to ask why, when we see him in
heaven.

Jesus worked miracles, for Jesus also healed many people of all
kinds of illnesses. He healed a noblemans son while a great
distance away. He healed Peters mother-in-law close by.
Jesus healed a woman who had been hemorrhaging for twelve
years, a man lame for thirty-eight years, and He gave sight to a
man blind from birth. You see, the amount of time someone
was afflicted did not hinder Jesus one bit. He healed them
completely because Jesus worked miracles, as fully God.
This morning we will look at just a few verses in Luke that speak
to yet another miracle. But in this miracle, a man is not just
healed. He is cleansed. He is made pure. Its a miracle just like
the others, but this miracle, today, is there for you and me.

REVIEW

Luke is writing to Theophilus so that he may know the exact

truth about Christ (Luke 1:1-4).

In Nazareth, Jesus had brought up a leper named Naaman.

The result was anger from the crowd (2 Kings 5:1-27; Luke
4:27-30).

Leprosy

is addressed in the Law of Moses in the book of

Leviticus (Leviticus 13, 14).

The Jews regarded leprosy as the stroke of God.

was a picture of sin.

To them it

THE LEPROUS MANS APPROACH TO JESUS

Jesus had just preached the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 8:1).
It was against the Law for a leprous man to be in the city
(Leviticus 13:45, 46).

The man fell on his face before Jesus.

The leprous man had faith.

This was humility.

He believed.

THE RESPONSE OF JESUS

I am willing; be cleansed.
Jesus

had just proclaimed that He came to fulfill the Law

(Matthew 5:17-20).

Jesus touched the untouchable.

what the Law could never do.

THE CLEANSED MANS TESTIMONY

Show

yourself to the priest and make an offering as Moses

commanded.

The cleansed man had to go through the requirements of the

Law as a testimony.

The priest would have had his mind blown (Leviticus 14).

HOW THIS APPLIES TO YOU

Do you recognize anything in your life that you need Jesus to

cleanse?

Jesus is willing.
Believers

Jesus works miracles. Be clean.

are free from the Law and produce that which

there is no law against (Galatians 5:18-23).
