Jesus: The Resurrection and the LifeSermon Series: Believe
Introduction: The four gospel writers Matthew, Mark, Luke and John record 37 miracles of Jesus, yet there were many more that were not recorded. Only seven of the innumerable miracles Jesus did are found in John’s gospel. John carefully selected just seven miracles to report because John was trying to prove one thing and get one response:
These are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of
God, and that by believing you may have life in his name (John 20:31)
Of the seven miracles, none comes close to the profound human implications or the viciously deadly response that came from the raising of Lazarus from the dead.
