John 11:45-57

John 11:45-57

Many believed in Jesus because of his raising Lazarus. Still others ran and told the leaders.  It makes me wonder what people believe when they see what I do. I may be the only Jesus that a person sees in their life.

The chief priest prophesied that Jesus would die.  This is the first time I really read this and had this part stand out.  These guys must have really thought they were doing God's will.  They plotted to kill him.

Now Jesus ministry became more withdrawn.  In the previous chapters were learned that no one could touch Jesus because it was not his time and he was doing the will of God.  However, God did give us a brain. We, like Jesus need to use it.  We don't purposely put ourselves out there to be killed, unless we are very sure this is what God wants from us.
