John 11
John chapter eleven, we're continuing our series on a parade of miracles! You will remember that John who wrote the gospel of John under the inspiration of the holy spirit of God gave us at the close of his gospel, both his motive and his method of writing the gospel. His motive was that you might believe that Jesus is the Christ and that believing you might have life through his name. That was his motive, but what was his method. He said many other signs did Jesus, but these are written that you might believe that he is the Christ.
And so, his method was to select seven miracles and these are special miracles, miracles with a message, signs with a significance, miracles that Jesus performed but you need to look beyond the miracle to the message. You need to look beyond the sign to the significance.
Today we're going to be talking about the last of those miracles, the raising of Lazarus from the dead. But let's quickly recapitulate and look back.

And that showed us that Jesus Christ is God's answer to man's discouragement because wine in the bible symbolizes joy and the wine had run out because mankind without Christ has no joy and then Jesus that day became the life of the party and he has been ever since. Amen.
So, Jesus is God's answer to man's discouragement. And the next miracle that we see was the healing of a nobleman son's and this nobleman had difficulty believing and Jesus remonstrated with him and said except you seen signs and miracles you'll not believe. And then Jesus said go thy way, thy son liveth and the bible says, and the man believed the word and so that tells us that faith is taking God at his word and that Jesus Christ is God's answer to man's doubt, man's discouragement, man's doubt.
The next miracle was the healing of a man who was paralyzed completely. The bible calls him impot ...
