A leper and a centurion's servant healed

Today's Gospel gives us two more epiphanies of our Lord's glory; in addition it shows that the Lord's glory is manifested by the faith of his people: the confidence of the leper and of the centurion. This confidence causes Jesus himself to marvel, showing us the source of this faith: God himself, the Holy Ghost. And we know how the Holy Ghost produces such faith: through the epiphanies and proclamations of Christ and his work, that is, by the Holy Gospel. So let us attend with diligence, for by  this same confidence we shall reap eternal rewards. Sermon for Epiphany III.
