He was from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.Ģ (This Mary, whose brother Lazarus now lay sick, was the same one who poured perfume on the Lord and wiped his feet with her hair.)ģ So the sisters sent word to Jesus, “Lord, the one you love is sick.”Ĥ When he heard this, Jesus said, “This sickness will not end in death.
Do you believe this?”ġ Now a man named Lazarus was sick. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. But let us go to him.” Then Thomas (also known as Didymus) said to the rest of the disciples, “Let us also go, that we may die with him.”Īnd that dying in belief is actually true living. So then he told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead, and for your sake I am glad I was not there, so that you may believe. Jesus' followers follow Jesus to they can "die" with Lazarus. And reflecting upon these lines: believing is a kind a of dying. I am reading about the parable of Jesus raising Lazarus from death.
