Signs of Authority in the Gospel of John - Part 5

John 11

Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me, even if he should die, will live." This is one of the greatest statements of all time -- what Martha and Mary still needed to learn was that the Messiah WAS the resurrection and that is what would give life to everyone who would believe. The raising of Lazarus was a mighty sign that Jesus had authority over both death and life.
