The resurrection of Lazarus in John 11 is not unlike our spiritual resurrection from the dead. Did you notice "how" Lazarus responded? He responded based on the specific call of the Lord Jesus (John 11:43-44) when he heard these words "Lazarus, come forth." This was a specific call to bring Lazarus from death unto life. A Christian is one who has received a specific call from the Lord Jesus that brings them from death to life. Then notice that Lazarus in John 11 came forth still wrapped in his grave clothes. In this video Dr. John MacArthur compares this to our living the Christian life.
