The Miracle of Lazarus

According to the Gospel of John, Jesus and Lazarus of Bethany were close friends. So, when Lazarus got sick, his sisters, Mary and Martha appealed to Jesus to help him.

But Jesus did not initially respond because he said, he wanted to reveal God’s glory. 

By the time, Jesus did arrive, Lazarus had been dead for four days, and in his tomb. “If you had been here, my brother would not have died, " a heartbroken Martha told Jesus.

Calm and collected, Jesus replied with a booming voice for everyone to hear, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me will live even though they die.“

It was in that moment, as the crowd watched, the famous miracle, The Raising of Lazarus occurred:

Jesus commanded, “Lazarus, come out!“ And Lazarus came out of his tomb, still wrapped in his burial clothes.

From this miracle, Jesus‘s fame grew dramatically, and he was widely celebrated, but as a result, he was eventually condemned to die by those in authority.

We know what happened to Jesus. But what became of Lazarus?

Dear Officials,

As you have witnessed and been profoundly affected by, the American President launched a war against you and now has no direction to go, except for an unending spiral of violence. He is appealing to the rest of the world to join him but has been rebuffed by everyone but Israel.

The Untold Story of The Telephone

History tells that on March 10, 1876, the first telephone call was placed when Alexander Graham Bell called his assistant Thomas Watson, – saying: "Mr. Watson, come here – I want to see you."

Soon telephone sales took off, and they had their first customers, which were big businesses and wealthy people.

But here is what history did not record, and the basis for our Fable:
