tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?” So they took away the
stone. Then Jesus looked up and said, “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. I knew that you always hear me, but I
said this for the benefit of the people standing here, that they may believe that
you sent me.” When he had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice, “Lazarus,
come out!” The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of
linen, and a cloth around his face. Jesus said to them, “Take off the grave clothes
and let him go.”

Many people who call themselves Christians deny that Jesus was born of a virgin. Go back through our lesson for today, and think about the part
Jesus’ virgin birth plays in God’s plan to save us from sin. Then answer this question: “Is the doctrine of the virgin

God died.

Luther once said that the devil would really be able to put a lot of doubt
about salvation in our minds when we are close to dying if he could come to
us and say, “Jesus can’t be your Savior because he is only a man!” or “Jesus
can’t be your Savior because he is only God!” How would Satan be able to put
a lot of doubt about our salvation in our minds if he could say either of those things to us when we are near
death?
