Oh, how indifferent, insensitive, numb, and apathetic hearts have become in this lukewarm and Laodicean church age of today. <em>(\u201cAnd as he entered into a certain village, there met him <strong>ten<\/strong> men that were lepers, which stood afar off: And they lifted up their voices, and said, Jesus, Master, have mercy on us. And when he saw them, he said unto them, Go shew yourselves unto the priests. And it came to pass, that, as they went, they were cleansed.
