Now when Jesus heard this, He marveled and said to those who were following, "Truly I say to you, I have not found such great faith with anyone in Israel.The centurion knew the power Jesus wielded. He knew that touch was not necessary, or even proximity. He didn't try to reason it out, or explain away why it couldn't be possible; he just believed Jesus had the power to heal at a distance, and was right.
When we get to heaven, we'll certainly be surprised by some of the people we find there, and who we won't. Jesus can be accepted by any, and does not discriminate from among men like we do. If one truly believes, we will meet them one day. If only my faith were as great as this centurion's.
