Friends in Christ, the readings this Sunday are clear evidence that actions have consequences.
In the 1st reading, we see that when God gets involved with his people, they live because God is life. God says to Israel, "I will open your graves and raise you from your graves, my people. And I shall put my spirit in you, and you will live ...and you will know that I am the Lord"
In the 2nd reading St Paul tells the Christinas in Rome that if they possess the spirit of Christ, they belong to Christ adding that if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, then he who raised Jesus from the dead will give life to your own mortal bodies through his Spirit living in you.
In the gospel, when Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, he could no longer fly under the radar. By raising Lazarus from the dead Jesus attracted the attention of his enemies and set himself on a path that ultimately led to the cross.
As followers of Christ, there are times when we will have to make a decisive and public choice for our faith or our values, in fact that is every single day of our lives. Standing up for the truth and what is right may bring praise or lead to misunderstanding or even persecution. We can draw strength in these decisive moments from the knowledge that the One we follow is the resurrection and the life. Any risk we take in following him is worth it in the end.
