COME OUT

John 12:17-19
17 So the people, who were with Him when He called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead, continued to testify about Him. 18 For this reason also the people went and met Him, because they heard that He had performed this sign. 19 So the Pharisees said to one another, "You see that you are not doing any good; look, the world has gone after Him." NASU
** I’ve read John a hundred times and I really can’t remember ever reading this verse! My view of Lazarus being raised from the dead was that…. “even when Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead many people still didn’t believe in Him.” However, here it tells a different story. Here were a group of people who was there at the tomb that were so life changed that they could not stop telling about Jesus’ miracles. You and I are a miracle! We were rotting in our tomb of selfishness and one day Jesus called our name and took us out of the tomb of sin and brought us out clean and righteous. How much more should we be “still with Jesus” proclaiming His greatness and sharing our testimony with the world.
