Like the observers of Lazarus’ death, many will find excuses to reject the Lord. Some will fault God for sickness, poverty and war. Others will be afraid to truly confess the rottenness of their sin, buried behind the stone. In the end, all who are in the tombs will hear His voice. Some to a resurrection of life, others to a resurrection of judgment.

One day it will be revealed that not all who seem to follow Jesus had a pure motive. What is yours?
