Before Jesus raised Lazarus, He paused at the tomb—and wept.
In this sermon, Pastor Jonny Ardavanis walks through John 11:28–35 and highlights one of the most profoundly human and divine moments in all of Scripture. Though Jesus knew resurrection was coming, He allowed Himself to fully feel the sorrow of the scene. He wept—not out of hopelessness, but out of love, indignation toward sin, and sympathy for those He loved.
This message explores four truths revealed in Jesus' tears:
1. He was a real man
2. He is sympathetic
3. He hates sin and death
4. He is the best of friends
This is not a detached deity—this is a Savior who enters into our sorrow and stands with us in our grief. If you've ever wondered whether God truly understands what you're going through, let this passage and this message assure you: He does.
