To demonstrate his power. Jesus performed miracles that were validation of his divinity

Non-believers, since I posted this message last night thousands of people wordwide died. If you are reading this, luckily you were not one of them and have been granted another day to live. But you don't know when your time in this world will end; you have been granted another chance by Almighty God to consider the message of Jesus.

Tomorrow is the Sabbath. Find a Christian church that is known to faithfully teach the Gospel of Jesus. If you are not a bible reader, get a modern language version of the new testament and begin to read it.

This subject is heavily on my mind because there is no second chance for a non-believer after death. When you take your last breath your fate is sealed FOREVER. The decision you make about Jesus is no casual "I'll take my chances on life after death."
If you believe there is no God or that Jesus is a myth, have you considered the consequence of being wrong?

In a bodily form, no I don't.

A bodily form isn't applicable here.

John 11:43-44
This verse talks about Jesus bringing back Lazarus from the dead.

Luke 7:13-15
This verse talks about Jesus resurrecting a widow's son from the dead and said widow being overjoyed that her son is now "alive" again.

So my question is this: If heaven is the ultimate destination, if nothing on Earth can possibly can approach the bliss that is the eternal Christian heaven, why would Jesus feel the need to bring people back from the dead? Shouldn't they be satisfied enough being in Heaven?


A good Bible study would show that Lazarus or any other saint couldn't go to Heaven yet until Jesus himself was resurrected. They went to a place called Abraham's Bosom or Paradise.

btw another good study is to look at the number 3 in the bible. It is usually a picture of the resurrection.

Jesus resurrected 3 people in the Bible.
There were 3 people resurrected in the Old Testament

Abraham took a 3 day journey with Isaac. In his mind Isaac was as good as dead those 3 days.

Jonah was in the belly of the whale 3 days. Picture of death and resurrection.

Esther fasted for 3 days before approaching the King to intercede for her people about to be slaughterd. The law at that time was if anyone approached the king without him holding up the golden sceptor they were executed. So she was in picture dead those 3 days.

Joseph told the Butler he would be restored from prison after 3 days. Picture of resurrection / new life from prison.

There are so many more...
