Why did Jesus wait 4 days before raising Lazarus? (John 11:1-44)

We know Jesus waited 4 days to raise Lazarus.  But why so long?  Of course, we know raising Lazarus showed Jesus's deity glorifying Jesus and glorifying God.  We also know it was good for strengthening the faith of the disciples but here is one thing many might not know... Jewish mysticism of the day was that the soul stayed near the body for 2 days after death.  The Bible contradicts that belief; however, that was a commonly held belief at that time.  In the same way, today many believe incorrectly that being a good person alone will allow them into heaven. We know this is also incorrect and contradicts scripture (John 14:6).  So, we can see some of the commonly held beliefs even of religious people of each era often have nothing to do with scripture. Jesus may very well have raised Lazarus well past that 2-day time frame so that ALL would realize that he had power over death and believe in Him.

Trusting we in faith follow Jesus Christ alone. We no longer trust that we know better than God and embrace things contradictory to the word.

Those things earned here may have some value here but not for eternity. All things gained with God have eternal value and reward. Where are you laying up treasures? “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, an...

Analysis of what makes his technique so effective - Dr. Ravi Zacharias Postmoderism and Philosophy

Video Ravi Zacharias:  Postmodernism and Philosophy   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mAwyIDKoXYY Christian Commentary on Ravi Zacharias:  Postmodernism and Philosophy   As Ravi Zacharias begins this presentation, he acknowledges the brilliance of the other speaker Albert Mohler in such a humble way.  To anyone viewing Ravi's presentation, his humility is immediately apparent, thus displaying his character.  Ravi also elicits emotion in his audience through humor.  Pastors learn this technique in Homiletics.  Laughter stimulates a part of the brain known as the Amygdala.  Once stimulated, concepts within the sermon more easily conjure up the intended emotions.  In making decisions, we most often decide based on how something makes us feel.  Have you ever thought, "It doesn't feel right."  Ultimately, you will be pushed by the evidence to decide for yourself if what is being said rings true in your heart.  So, ...
