The Life and Teachings of Christ
The Life and Teachings of ChristSteve Gregg

In this recording, Steve Gregg provides a detailed analysis of the biblical story of Lazarus, focusing on Martha's faith and Jesus' bodily resurrection of Lazarus. Gregg explains how Jesus' call to action, even in the face of danger, is an indication of God's plan for humanity to be productive and engaged with life. Despite the doubts of Martha and Thomas, Jesus demonstrates his divinity by resurrecting Lazarus, signaling the eternal life that awaits believers. Lazarus' resurrection also served as a powerful testament to Jesus' message and resulted in many coming to believe in him.
