chapter 11 explained
A few days before God shut Jerusalem Temple, the Jewish religious leaders came in Jesus Christ with a difficult question.
"By what authority will make these things? Who gave you this authority? "Such audacity! Imagine this so-called leaders have the nerve and audacity to challenge the Son of God and make the Temple of Jerusalem. It was nothing but a revelation of their sin and sinfulness. Do not be surprised when certain things come too your way at times.
At least Jesus Christ was recognized authority but were unaware that the authority came from God.
Jesus shows us how to handle difficult questions. Requests the inquisitors, "Tell me for the baptism of John. It was the heaven or from men? "read by this conversation at the beginning of Luke Chapter 20 in the New Testament part of Paper.
If you could answer question, will be able to own the answer is that John the Baptist explained that Jesus was and what authority he had.
Jesus had answered immediately will be accept his answer? Do they want to know the answer, Jesus did not would invest in knowledge, if you really do not want to know.
Some people ask questions in which really do not want to know response. This can be a real dilemma.
Jesus did not respond to every question immediately when he sees a sinful twist the questioner.
These leaders huddled together. Anything will do? Observe what occur. "How will it affect us?"
The hummed and hawed and hid behind by religious cloaks, saying, "I do not know." They knew perfectly well, but the benefit of the doubt and to express ignorance.
Jesus will not answer their question. They reached that terrible point where Jesus had more to say but continued to teach those who were open to listen.
If a man ignore the voice of God, after a while the sound may become fainter.
God not give more light to those who deliberately reject the light already offer. Leaders and true leadership requires to teach this simple and clear.
These men refused to accept what Jesus was teaching, and that can happen in each church.

Can you explain to speak with me, Luke chapter 17 verses 11-19?
PLS and thanks =)) Please help me with that person.
Luke the question is about seventeen years, the message is, I think, quite clear. The nine were treated his own situation, which means that people which have been very selfish, and probably will continue their lives unchanged – except for no longer had leprosy. The tenth, however, knew "which way is the bread and butter, so to speak, and he had to thank for his recovery. I think verse 19 is the key here – that because of his faith, became a whole person, while the other nine just been healed. It is hardly much of a coincidence because on average only ten percent (one in ten) people in the world are Christians – and most of them (the same as the Samaritan returned to thank Jesus) are not part of "God (original) people. "
