John records seven miraculous signs in his gospel and today as we look at the seventh - the raising of Lazarus - we can't help but be drawn into the death and resurrection of Jesus himself. With Lazarus Jesus showed he had authority over death, with his own crucifixion and resurrection he shows us that he has destroyed death. That friends is good news.
