Bigs' Big Takeaways - Jesus Christ the Resurrection
Today we learned how Jesus Christ is the resurrection and the life. We reviewed John 11 where Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead. When Jesus entered Bethany Lazarus had been in a tomb for four days. Martha, Lazarus' sister agreed that he would rise again, referring to the resurrection on the last day (John 11:24), but Jesus presents her with a much deeper truth: Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?” (John 11:25-26). In raising Lazarus from the dead many of the bystanders believed in him (John 11:45). Some however reported these things to the Pharisees who then had a council out of fear that all people would believe in Jesus. Caiaphas the high priest unknowingly prophesies that "It is better for you that one man should die for the people, not that the whole nation should perish" (John 11:50). We rejoice in this fulfilled prophecy that Jesus Christ laid down his life for us.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believes on him would not perish, but have everlasting life.
