English Christian Song | "Only God Can Command Mankind's Life and Death"
February 9, 2025
I
The Lord Jesus' resurrection of Lazarus was one of the ways in which the Creator teaches and instructs mankind. It was a concrete action in which He used His power and authority to instruct and provide for mankind. It was a way, without using words, for the Creator to allow mankind to see the truth that He is in command of all things. It was a way for Him to tell mankind through practical actions that there is no salvation other than through Him. This silent means which He used to instruct mankind is everlasting, indelible, bringing to human hearts a shock and enlightenment that can never fade.
II
The resurrection of Lazarus glorified God—this has a deep impact on every single one of God's followers. It firmly fixes in every person who deeply understands this event the vision that only God can command mankind's life and death. Lazarus walked out from his tomb because of the words from the Lord Jesus' mouth. This was the authority of God, demonstrated and realized in His incarnate flesh. This type of authority and ability belonged to the Creator, and to the Son of man in whom the Creator was realized. This is the understanding taught to mankind by God bringing Lazarus back from the dead.
