Motives matter.
For example, some people pursued Christ with good, positive intentions.
But others (like Judas Iscariot) had selfish or wicked motives.
What are your own motives in coming to Christ?
Is it for His glory and interests, or for yours?
That will be the focus of today’s study in John 12.

He let him die.
That’s what the people were thinking.
Jesus heard that Lazarus was sick, and rather than go to him, He let him die.
But that’s not what happened, was it?
Instead, Jesus permitted a difficult situation in order to bring about a miraculous outcome. We will consider that outcome in today’s study of John 11.
Questions That We’ll Answer:
A) Why did Jesus wait so long to go to Lazarus?
B) Where is Jesus when His people need Him?
C) How does God bring good out of evil?
