Good Morning Great Steemians. @steemcenturion here.

Today i decided to make a quick study on Samaria and its people,

I found out 3 exceptional places in the new testament that people of Samaria behaved in a well pleasing manner to the Lord.

Jesus Himself actually had to commend the good works of The People of Samaria in the Well Known Parable of The Good Samaritan

What Spured my interest was the adventure of our Lord and Saviour Jesus with Woman at the well, as described in John 4,

Source

When therefore the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized more disciples than John,

(Though Jesus himself baptized not, but his disciples,)

He left Judaea, and departed again into Galilee.

And he must needs go through Samaria.

Then cometh he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

Now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore, being wearied with his journey, sat thus on the well: and it was about the sixth hour.

There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.

(For his disciples were gone away unto the city to buy meat.)

Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.

Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.

The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?

Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?

Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:

But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw. 16. Jesus saith unto her, Go, call thy husband, and come hither.

The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband:

For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.

The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.

Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.

Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.

Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.

But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.

Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.

And upon this came his disciples, and marvelled that he talked with the woman: yet no man said, What seekest thou? or, Why talkest thou with her?

28. The woman then left her waterpot, and went her way into the city, and saith to the men,

29. Come, see a man, which told me all things that ever I did: is not this the Christ?

I liked the last Verse, showing his the Samaritan woman immediately plunged into soul winning and went out immediately to invite people to see the Messiah.

My pastor once said that

" If something happened in the old testament and in the New testament, that means it can also happen in the Now testament."

Hence, Just like the Samaritan woman of the New testament, I will be the doing the same in the Now Testament using the @Steem Blockchain, @Steemit Social Enterprise and @Steemchurch Household.

Today, I introduce you all to @Steemcenturion - The Samaritan of Steemchurch.

I got to know about Steemchurch from @druids and I found out that its a Church in the blockchain, the first ever church of the blockchain, which is aimed at spreading the gospel of Christ and bringing men of all races, tribes, languages and color, unto obedience to Christ and to understand the ideology of God's kingdom, to receive a change of paradigm through the word of God.

And I fully support the motive.

Steemchurch is run by @sirknight, a worthy leader, and our 12 Apostles who have maintained law and order in the family.

More information's about our activities coming soon.
