THE LESSON La Lección Primera Ezequiel 37: 12-14The First Lesson Ezekial 37: 12-14 Pues bien, háblales en mi nombre, y diles: “Esto dice Dios: Pueblo mío, voy a abrir las tumbas de ustedes; voy a sacarlos de ellas y a hacerlos volver a la tierra de Israel. Y cuando yo abra sus tumbas y los saque de ellas, reconocerán ustedes, pueblo mío, que yo soy Dios. Yo pondré en ustedes mi aliento de vida, y ustedes revivirán; y los instalaré en su propia tierra. Entonces sabrán que yo, Dios, lo he dicho y lo he hecho. Yo, Dios, lo afirmo.”

+ Esta es la Palabra de DiosTE ALABAMOS, O DIOS

Therefore prophesy, and say to them, “Thus says God: I am going to open your graves, and bring you up from your graves, O my people; and I will bring you back to the land of Israel. And you shall know that I am God, when I open your graves, and bring you up from your graves, O my people. I will put my spirit within you, and you shall live, and I will place you on your own soil; then you shall know that I, God, have spoken and will act, says God.”

La Lección Segunda San Juan 11: 1-26The Second Lesson John 11: 1-26Había un persona enfermo que se llamaba Lázaro, natural de Betania, el pueblo de María y de su hermana Marta. Esta María, que era hermana de Lázaro, fue la que derramó perfume sobre los pies de Jesús y los secó con sus cabellos. Así pues, las dos hermanas mandaron a decir a Jesús: “Maestro, tu amigo querido está enfermo.” Jesús, al oírlo, dijo: “Esta enfermedad no va a terminar en muerte, sino que ha de servir para mostrar la gloria de Dios, y también la gloria del Niño de Dios.” Aunque Jesús quería mucho a Marta, a su hermana y a Lázaro, cuando le dijeron que Lázaro estaba enfermo se quedó dos días más en el lugar donde se encontraba. Después dijo a los discípulos: “Vamos otra vez a Judea.” Los discípulos le dijeron: “Maestro, hace poco los pueblos de esa región trataron de matarte a pedradas, ¿y otra vez quieres ir allá?” Jesús les dijo: “¿No es cierto que el día tiene doce horas? Pues si uno anda de día, no tropieza, porque ve la luz que hay en este mundo; pero si uno anda de noche, tropieza, porque le falta la luz.” Después añadió: “Nuestro amigo Lázaro se ha dormido, pero voy a despertarlo.” Los discípulos le dijeron: “Maestro, si Lázaro ha dormido, es señal de que va a sanar.” Pero lo que Jesús les decía es que Lázaro había muerto, mientras que los discípulos pensaban que se había referido al sueño natural. Entonces Jesús les dijo claramente: “Lázaro ha muerto. Y me alegro de no haber estado allí, porque así es mejor para ustedes, para que crean. Pero vamos a verlo.” Entonces Tomás, la persona que llamaban el Gemelo, dijo a los otros discípulos: “Vamos también nosotros, para morir con Jesús.” Al llegar, Jesús se encontró con que ya hacía cuatro días que Lázaro había sido sepultado. Betania se hallaba cerca de Jerusalén, a unos tres kilómetros; y muchos de los pueblos habían ido a visitar a Marta y a María, para consolarlas por la muerte de su hermano. Cuando Marta supo que Jesús estaba llegando, salió a recibirlo; pero María se quedó en la casa. Marta le dijo a Jesús: “Maestro, si hubieras estado aquí, mi hermano no habría muerto. Pero yo sé que aun ahora Dios te dará todo lo que le pidas.” Jesús le contestó: “Tu hermano volverá a vivir.” Marta le dijo: “Sí, ya sé que volverá a vivir cuando los muertos resuciten, en el día último.” Jesús le dijo entonces: “Yo soy la resurrección y la vida. La persona que cree en mí, aunque muera, vivirá; y todo, las personas que todavía está vivo y cree en mí, no morirá jamás. ¿Crees esto?”

Call to WorshipWhere could I go to escape your spirit? Where could I flee from your presence?

IF I FLEW TO THE POINT OF SUNRISE, OR

WESTWARD ACROSS THE SEA, YOUR HAND WOULD

STILL BE GUIDING ME, YOUR RIGHT HAND

HOLDING ME.

If I asked darkness to cover me, and light to become night around

me, that darkness would not be dark to you, night would be as light as day.

IT WAS YOU WHO CREATED MY INMOST SELF, AND

PUT ME TOGETHER IN MY MOTHER’S WOMB;

FOR ALL THESE MYSTERIES I THANK YOU;

FOR THE WONDER OF MYSELF, FOR THE WONDER

OF YOUR WORKS.

~from Psalm 139

Now a certain person was ill, Lazarus of Bethany, the village of Mary and her sibling Martha. Mary was the one who anointed Jesus with perfume and wiped Jesus’ feet with her hair; Mary’s sibling Lazarus was ill. So Mary and Martha sent a message to Jesus, “Jesus, the one whom you love is ill.” But when Jesus heard it, Jesus said, “This illness does not lead to death; rather it is for God’s glory, so that the Child of God may be glorified through it.” Accordingly, though Jesus loved Martha and Mary and Lazarus, after having heard that Lazarus was ill, Jesus stayed two days longer in the place where he was. Then after this Jesus said to the disciples, “Let us go to Judea again.” The disciples said to Jesus, “Rabbi, the people of Judea were just now trying to stone you, and are you going there again?” Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours of daylight? Those who walk during the day do not stumble, because they see the light of this world. But those who walk at night stumble, because the light is not in them.” After saying this, Jesus told them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going there to awaken Lazarus.” The disciples said to Jesus, “Teacher, if Lazarus has fallen asleep, Lazarus will be all right.” Jesus, however, had been speaking about Lazarus’ death, but they thought that Jesus was referring merely to sleep. Then Jesus told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead. For your sake I am glad I was not there, so that you may believe. But let us go to Lazarus.” Thomas, who was called the Twin, said to the other disciples, “Let us also go, that we may die with Jesus.” When Jesus arrived, he found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb four days. Now Bethany was near Jerusalem, some two miles away, and many of the Judeans had come to Martha and Mary to console them about their sibling. When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, Martha went and met him, while Mary stayed at home. Martha said to Jesus, “if you had been here, my sibling would not have died. But even now I know that God will give you whatever you ask.” Jesus said to Martha, “Your sibling will rise again.” Martha said to Jesus, “I know that Lazarus will rise again in the resurrection on the last day.” Jesus said to Martha, “I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me, even though they die, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?”
