The Resurrection is the greatest miracle since creation. Everything turned on this marvelous event, Jesus* (4BC-30AD) breaking the bonds of death because, as Luke says, Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it. - Acts 2:24

I knew the story of Lazarus from Sunday school, but learned about Lazarus Saturday, last week. The Lazarus Jesus loved was His friend from Bethany, the other a beggar in His parable. 4-day Lazaus His friend is sometimes called because Jesus waited 4 days after he died to come. But when He came, He exceeded all expectations and gave Lazarus new life. Jesus will give you new life as well, if you come to Him today!

Theophanies are appearances of gods, goddesses, or God. They are rare in the Old Testament because God is a Spirit, and invisible. So how did he appear?

Enemies of the Gospel reject Jesus and His great salvation and deny the truth of the Bible to millions who believe. Worse still, they replaced God's Book of Life with his book of death, "the survival of the fittest."

Notice Jesus was subject to Joseph and Mary, and his adoptive father brought Him up well. What a fine job he did in training this Son to grow up in this world. They were a poor family, offering turtle doves as a sacrifice, and lived in a poor city, Nazareth. Nevertheless, Joseph brought up his large family well.
