Episode 78 Do You Believe This? (John 11:26) Ron's Notes

Ron Jones

All who live believing in me don’t die. This seems like a better translation. Believing in Jesus isn’t like believing a fact. It is entering into the truth of who he is. Another way of saying this would be that no one is alive who doesn’t believe in Jesus. He is the doorway into life, not a mothers womb. No one comes alive without belief in Jesus. Is this right? Then when he says to Martha, do you believe? He is asking her: are you alive? Are you really and totally alive?

Compare this to the faith of the centurion for his servant. Jesus could have cured Lazarus from where he was put in the wilderness. These people who “believed” in, knew and loved Jesus did not have as much faith as the pagan Roman.
