When Jesus first heard the news about Lazarus, Jesus declared that his illness was not going to be fatal - John 11:4
When Lazarus died, the disciples probably thought that he really blew it this time
Good thing Jesus called lazarus by nameotherwise every corpse in cemetery may have come out
The story of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead foreshadows Jesus' own resurrection after three days in the tomb
Jesus is a victor over death
The phrase goes: Two things are certain - death and taxes
While some could not pay taxes for a while; no one but Jesus can conquer death
Do you fear death? How does your relationship with Jesus change the way you once thought?
