By not emptying THE CROSS of its power
You know the words of men but you don't know TheWORD of GODExactly.... and a Mary Magdalene type of person.....
can give a different type of powerful testimony than would tend to be given by
the young man who had already been
observing the commandments scrupulously....
but Rabbi Yeshua- Jesus showed that man that he had a problem with
idolatry in the form of greed.......
You know the words of men but you don't know TheWORD of GOD
Paul was very specific that he did not resort to human wisdom or argument
shouldnt 1 Corinthians 2 have been sufficient to your understanding?
Do I really have to now examine pastor Seymour to judge if he truly was in the faith?Why do you think Messiah Yeshua - Jesus worked with such astonishing power through Pastor William Seymour?
What message was Messiah Yeshua - Jesus telling America through the Azuza St. ministry?
These weren't babiesSo are you saying that his own personal story.....
of how he once persecuted Messianic Jews.....
was human reasoning and argument?
Act 26:11
"And I punished them oft in every synagogue, and compelledthem to blaspheme; and being exceedingly mad against them, I persecuted them even unto strange cities."
Oh he didn't use that until he was driven to validate himself because false prophets were slipping in disrupting and deceiving the sheep by their open praise and validation of themselves
Lazarus was sickOK.... so could you make a guess as to why
people who knew the ten commandments would plot
to kill Lazarus?
Is it possible that Lazarus was going around with a testimony that was so
powerful that people were flocking to hear him.......
and their lives were forever changed by the testimony of Lazarus?
Is that possible?
Could Lazarus have given a testimony similar to "Heaven is for Real?" by Colton and Pastor Todd Burpo?
Please continue reading the rest of the WORD of GODJohn 12:10
"But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death;"
Having been dead for four days it would not surprise me one bit if Lazarus was giving a personal testimony on some levels like that of former Atheist Howard Storm Ph. D. who became a pastor after his near death experience.
Lazarus was sick
He died
Jesus raised him up
The people began all the more to follow CHRIST
And the supposed teachers of the law said if we don't do something the whole world will run after HIM and we will no longer get preferential treatment
Lazarus testimony would have been to his own brethren and his testimony would have been clearOK.... so could you make a guess as to why
people who knew the ten commandments would plot
to kill Lazarus?

And
Are you offended if Lazarus was indeed giving a testimony?
The teachers of the LAW had already planned to kill Jesus
They threw Lazarus in
No concern that Lazarus did nothing
Kill him anyway?
Bad judgement on their part
No different than wanting to kill the man with the withered hand because JESUS had
H. E. A. L. E. D. him
What do you need?But..... do you honestly think that
Lazarus was NOT giving people a personal testimony
that might have been somewhat like the fifteen year old Israeli
teenager who had a near death experience back in 2015?
Take a look at the crowd of people and the enthusiasm with which they are asking this young man questions:
Israeli teenager has near death experience and predicts....
Lazarus testimony would have been to his own brethren and his testimony would have been clear
They were there some had witnessed it with their own eyes
Lazarus' testimony would have been
JESUS is THE RESURRECTION and THE LIFE
HE who believes in HIM though he die shall live and he who believes in HIM and lives shall never die
The gospel has gone around the world, the opportunity to hear it is available, just because it is neglected doesn't man that it hasn't reached its fullness.
What do you need?
If one were to die and come back from the grave they still would not believe was not said so that men should look to follow and believe in men
It was always that they should point to THE ONE who is life of whom THE SCRIPTURES speak of
No..... I am not offended by the idea of Lazarus giving a testimony and I am NOT OFFENDED if that testimony was somewhat similar to that of Colton Burpo, former Atheist Howard Storm Ph. D. or the young man in Israel.
I'm saying no one can know when god decides when the fullness of Gentiles has come to an end
