Lessons From the Lazarus Narrative (2) By Babatunde Olugboji This week we will continue our series of lessons from the miracle of the resurrection of Lazarus in John 11. In this narrative, Mary and Martha, the sisters of Lazarus sent for Jesus when Lazarus was sick. Jesus deliberately delayed His coming, and by the time He got to Bethany, Lazarus was already in the tomb. Dead and buried. The first thing we should note is this: Being a worshiper doesn’t give you a pass from the wiles of the devil and being a lover of Jesus doesn’t exempt us from…

Are we to continue in sin that grace may abound?”  Many people have argued that preaching about boundless grace could inadvertently provide a license to sin.
