Series: Signs - The Miracles of Jesus

John 11:1-44
We've been taking the past six weeks to look at the miracles of Jesus as they're presented in the Gospel of John. And today we come to the last one. And just like last week, this is kind of a long passage…so I'm just going to skip a couple of verses as we go along. So we're in John 11; here's what happened.
1 Now a man named Lazarus was sick. He was from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha. 2 (This Mary, whose brother Lazarus now lay sick, was the same one who poured perfume on the Lord and wiped his feet with her hair.) 3 So the sisters sent word to Jesus, ''Lord, the one you love is sick.''
