Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?
As Lazarus lay dead in the tomb, Jesus spoke to Martha who affirmed that Lazarus would be resurrected “at the last day”.
Her answer wasn’t enough. Jesus challenged the faith of Martha – who may have believed in her head but not her heart – to lift her hope from a distant possibility to a divine Person.
Jesus Christ is the resurrection and the life. You may know cognitively that Jesus conquered death and offers eternal life, but do you truly know it in your heart?
Practically speaking, how would such heart knowledge transform your life?
