    Though we live on this earth, it is important that we have an eternal perspective. We are all heading to one of two destinations, and may God help us to make the right decision so we can be with Him for eternity.

    The Lazarus story from a slightly different perspective. It asks the question "how do we respond when God doesn’t show up in time." Mary and Martha demonstrate the true nature of faith.

    We could grow and rise beyond our situation when we do the unpopular. Based on the example of Mary, the sister of Lazarus, we can do these 4 actions so we can grow.

    Growing by Doing the Unpopular Matthew 26:6-13 6 Now while Jesus was in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper, 7 a woman came to him with an alabaster jar of expensive perfumed oil, and she poured it on his head as he was at the table. 8 When the disciples saw this, they became indignant and ...read more

    Jesus' act of raising Lazarus from the dead is one of the most thrilling and wondrous passages in Scripture. It shows His undeniable authority over the last enemy of humanity and was a public display of His power.

    The ultimate state of helplessness is death. Once it overpowers you, regardless of age, status, education, health, or situation, you are in no state either to conquer its grip upon you, nor do you have any control over anything that you had considered valuable or precious, for none of it cannot ...read more

    Satan Uses Pain

    Start with Job and then talk about how Satan wants to use pain from John 11 with the account of the raising of Lazarus (Adapted from a book by Joe Beam called "Seeing the Unseen")

    HoHum: When speaking about Job, one time I said, “Satan can do nothing without God’s permission.” This opened up a whole can of worms. If God is good and all powerful, then how do we explain the existence of pain, suffering, and evil in our world? There are no easy answers. WBTU: Take for ...read more

    It’s not about the money. Many people hear this parable about the Rich Man and Lazarus and think that God’s got it in for rich people. But it’s not about the money. It’s about compassion.

    In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to you, Lord, my rock and my redeemer. Amen. (Psalm 19:14) It’s not about the money. Many people hear this parable about the Rich Man and Lazarus and think ...read more

    How our pride and arrogance keeps us from seeing that our calling in life is to love those around us and share the blessings that we have been given by God. "The Rich Man and Lazarus"

    Placing the Story: condemnation of: wealth equals righteous and poverty equals sin.

    He is risen! He is alive! Jesus raised never to die again. Others in the New Testament were raised, but died again, like Lazarus. Jesus was raised from the dead and he shall live forever.

    The resurrection is the very central point and essence of Christianity. It is “of first importance” of the Christian faith. That essence and the importance is captured beautifully in For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the ...read more
