A) The centurion came to Jesus: There are no contradictions related to this story’s different accounts. The Gospels are not “history” books, although they are HIS STORY books. The Gospels are four different accounts from four different perspectives of the same events. One elephant, four sides. B) A centurion is in charge of about 100 soldiers. How do we know that? A century is 100 years. Get it? He needs help. He is not used to needing help. But when the realm is beyond us, we go to God. C) He comes on behalf of another. His servant. Not his special friend, as the perverted and twisted LGBTQRSTUV would claim. On the contrary, he cared for the people under him like a decent human being. D) Am I to come…or I will come…makes no difference to the truths being taught. Because the soldier said, “You don’t need to go,” we can at least surmise that Jesus was willing to go. But the soldier knew something that we often miss.
