Mark
5:21-24,35-43 KJV (Matthew 9:18,19,23-25/ Luke 8:41,42, 49-56)
(Christ's 1st raising from the dead/10th
miracle.)
21 And when Jesus was passed over
again by ship unto the other side, much people gathered unto Him: and
He was nigh unto the sea.
22 And, behold, there cometh one of
the rulers of the synagogue, Jairus by name; and when he saw
Him, he fell at His feet,
23 And besought Him greatly, saying,
My little daughter lieth at the point of death: I pray thee,
come and lay thy hands on her, that she may be healed; and she shall
live.
24 And Jesus went with him; and much
people followed Him, and thronged Him.
35 While He yet spake, there came
from the ruler of the synagogue's house certain which said, Thy
daughter is dead: why troublest thou The Master any further?
36 As soon as Jesus heard the word
that was spoken, He saith unto the ruler of the synagogue, Be not
afraid, only believe.
37 And he suffered no man to follow
Him, save Peter, and James, and John the brother of James.
38 And He cometh to the house of the
ruler of the synagogue, and seeth the tumult, and them that wept and
wailed greatly.
39 And when He was come in, He saith
unto them, Why make ye this ado, and weep? the damsel is not dead,
but sleepeth.
40 And they laughed Him to scorn.
But when He had put them all out, He taketh the father and the mother
of the damsel, and them that were with Him, and entereth in where the
damsel was lying.
41 And He took the damsel by the
hand, and said unto her, Talitha cumi; which is, being interpreted,
Damsel, I say unto thee, arise.
42 And straightway the damsel arose,
and walked; for she was of the age of twelve years. And they were
astonished with a great astonishment.
43 And He charged them straitly that
no man should know it; and commanded that something should be given
her to eat.
Luke 7:11-17 KJV
(Christ's 2nd
raising from the dead/15th
miracle.)
11 And it came to pass...that He
went into a city called Nain; and many of His disciples went with
Him, and much people.
12 Now when He came nigh to the gate
of the city, behold, there was a dead man carried out, the
only son of his mother, and she was a widow: and much people of the
city was with her.
13 And when The Lord saw her, He had
compassion on her, and said unto her, Weep not.
14 And He came and touched the bier:
and they that bare him stood still. And He said, Young man, I say
unto thee, Arise.
15 And he that was dead sat up, and
began to speak. And He delivered him to his mother.
16 And there came a fear on all: and
they glorified God, saying, That A Great Prophet is risen up among
us; and, That God hath visited His people.
17 And this rumor of Him went
forth throughout all Judaea, and throughout all the region round
about.
Lazarus would be
Christ's 3rd person raised from the dead /30th
miracle.
The Lord Jesus,
just as He had prophesied, commanded Lazarus to come forth, and he
came forth.
Yes, Mary and
Martha, and all followers of The Lord, may trust Him, for what He
says, that He will do!
John 11:25,26
KJV
25 Jesus said unto her (Martha),
I am The Resurrection, And The Life: he that believeth in Me, though
he were dead, yet shall he live:
26 And whosoever liveth and
believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
