hello everyone arent yoou exited to hear a new story from the bible
oh yes yes we are which story are you going to tell us holy
today story is called Lazras
Whos lazras what happen to him lazras is a friend of jesus
lets find out as we read the story
So are you children ready for it yes yes we are
Jesu had a very good friend called lazras in Bethany Lazras had 2 sisters
Mary and Martha on day lazras fell very ill and his sisters send a message to jesus
asking them to come to their home but when Jesus received a message.
jesus sain Lazeas wont die from those it is for gods glory
even though jesus loved lazras and his sisters he didnt go too bethany right away
he waited for 2 days and said les go to judeya
Thats where Betheny was Jesus decples thought other wise
They didn't think that was a very good idea for jesus to visit bethany
Because a few days earlier to that religious leaders of judeya
had threatened to kill him but jesus said our friend lazras is sleeping
we must go and wake him wait a minute his desiples said
if he's sleeping it means he is resting and hes getting from his illness
but they didnt actually get what jesus ment
sleeping means jesus ment lazras has died
jesus said what i am trying to tell you is Lazras has died
i am glad i was not there to help him but now you will see god power
for those who dont believe in me
So Jesus and his disciples left to bethany
when he got there he was told lazras had died
and buried 4 days before There where many people friends and neighbours
who came to mary and marthas house to offer them their support and sympathy
someone went in and informed martha that jesus had come
she ran out to meet him and mary stayed home
martha ran out to jesus and said Lord if you had been here
my brother would been alive still i know and belive god will do what ever you ask
your brother will rise again jesus said yes i know
when everyone rises at the resurrection he will rise too
Martha said. I am the resurrection and life jesus said.
People who believe in me will live forever
even though they died they will have eternal life in having faith in me
do you believe this martha
Yes i do martha said i have always believed you are the messiah
The son of god. Martha went back home to her sister and told her jesus is here
and wanted to see her mary immediately ran out to jesus
My brother wouldnt have have died if you would have come
Mary said to jesus she started crying and when jesus sow her grief he was very upset
some of the people wondered why jesus havent come and helped lazrasus
Because he could he can do miracles
h have healed blind people before. Where have you buried him Jesus asked
Some one told him where lazrus was buried
Jesus went to the tomb where lazrus was buried and said roll away the stone
Martha stopped him no dont he has been buried for 4 days and will smell terrible
i told you, You will see god's glory if you have believed didn't i.
jesus said and some of the rolled the stone aside
jesus looked up to heaven and said father thank you for hearing my prayers
then he shouted Lazeus come out all the people there where amazed when lazrus walked out of the tomb
still wrapped in the burial cloth. Jesus said. Unwrap him and let him go
