00:00When Jesus arrived in the village of Bethany, his beloved friend Lazarus had already lain four days
00:05entombed. Grieving Martha ran out to meet him saying, Lord, if you had been here, my brother
00:10would not have died. Jesus spoke to her with eternal authority. I am the resurrection and
00:16the life. Whoever believes in me shall live. With unshakable faith through her tears, Martha
00:21confessed aloud, Yes, Lord, I believe that you are the Christ of God. Soon weeping Mary fell at his
00:27feet in sorrow, and Jesus was deeply moved in spirit at their grief. Standing before the dark
00:32stone cave, Jesus himself wept aloud, showing the tender compassion of God's own heart. Though Martha
00:38warned of the four days in death, Jesus commanded them to roll away the heavy stone. Lifting his eyes
00:43toward heaven in prayer, Jesus thanked the Father aloud, so all the crowd would believe. Then Jesus
00:49cried out with a mighty voice into the silent darkness of the tomb, Lazarus, come out. Lazarus
00:54walked out alive in linen bands, and Jesus said, Unbind him and let him go free in grace.
