On the Raising of Lazarus

Many of the Jews saw what He had done an believed,

but some went to tell the Pharisees what He had done.

John 11:45-46

imagine being there

imagine seeing Jesus call Lazarus from Death

Jesus, Mary, Martha, and others stand

the stone cold and uncaring before them

tears flow

Jesus speaks

His voice rings with authority

the stone is moved at His command

and Lazarus

LAZARUS!!!

he steps out from the tomb

he’d been put in four days before

out into the broad light of day the once dead man

WALKS!

tears quick turned to cries of joy

imagine being there

imagine being so moved by His power

so overwhelmed by His glory and majesty

imagine being there

imagine seeing Death flee at His command

just as quickly as blindness fled

or water turned so easily into wine

imagine being there

imagine standing face-to-face with the Son of God

and your best choice is to be a tattle-tale

just imagine
