Luke 17:16-26

16 He threw himself at Jesus' feet and thanked him. The man was a Samaritan.
17 Jesus asked, "Weren't all ten healed? Where are the other nine?
18 Didn't anyone else return and give praise to God except this outsider?"
19 Then Jesus said to him, "Get up and go. Your faith has healed you."

The Coming of God's Kingdom

20 Once the Pharisees asked Jesus when God's kingdom would come. He replied, "The coming of God's kingdom is not something you can see just by watching for it carefully.
21 People will not say, 'Here it is.' Or, 'There it is.' God's kingdom is among you."
22 Then Jesus spoke to his disciples. "The time is coming," he said, "when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man. But you won't see it.
23 People will tell you, 'There he is!' Or, 'Here he is!' Don't go running off after them.
24 "When the Son of Man comes, he will be like the lightning. It flashes and lights up the sky from one end to the other.
25 But first the Son of Man must suffer many things. He will not be accepted by the people of today.
26 "Remember how it was in the days of Noah. It will be the same when the Son of Man comes.
