Summary
Summary prepared by Acts 2:38 Life from the transcript below — the preacher’s words follow in full.
The supper at Bethany, and the crowd that came to see Lazarus
- Jesus comes to Bethany six days before the Passover, to the house of Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead.
- Martha serves the supper and Lazarus sits at the table, while Mary anoints the feet of Jesus with costly ointment and wipes them with her hair, and the house is filled with the fragrance.
- Many of the Jews come not for Jesus only, but also to see Lazarus, whom he raised from the dead.
- The chief priests consult to put Lazarus also to death, because by reason of him many of the Jews go away and believe on Jesus.
Scriptures: John 12:1-3; John 12:9-11
Because of Lazarus: a raised life is an epistle the world reads
- He announces his subject: because of Lazarus - the people came for Jesus, but they also came because of Lazarus.
- Paul says believers are an epistle written in hearts, known and read of all men; what a life shows preaches before words are used.
- Somebody at your job or your school may never read another Bible than the life they see in you.
- The Bible is the most important book in all history, yet a man God raised up is the copy his neighbours actually read.
Do not be ashamed of the past he brought you out of
- He tells of bad seasons of his own life he would like to tear out, and of seasons that were not victories, yet says he would not be here tonight without what God did with them.
- He testifies that he was diagnosed with cancer and is now healthy, and urges the house not to be ashamed of having once been in the world.
- People are in the house because of somebody whose testimony showed them Jesus sets free; nothing teaches worship like going through hell and coming out alive.
- His close calls the house to let their praise show the Lord he is welcome in this house tonight.
