John 11:43 And when He (Jesus) thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come forth."
Most of us have heard the story of Lazarus and how Jesus raised him from the dead. We can almost recite it word for word. It is an awesome story that we never get tired of hearing. Well, we heard the story again not too long ago from a different perspective which brought about a DUH! Moment for me and a few others. The question was asked, “Why did Jesus say Lazarus’ name? “Lazarus, come forth”. Why not just say, “Come forth”. Well think about it for a moment. If Jesus said, “Come Forth”, then everyone from the beginning who had died, not just Lazarus, would be raised up from the dead.
Could you imagine?
