He called Lazarus only once.
John 11:41-45:
41: Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.
42: And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said it, that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
43: And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.
44: And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.
45: Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him.

Was Jesus the cousin of Lazarus?
Almost certainly not. Scripture makes it clear where relations of Jesus exist; we are told that Elizabeth, the mother of John the Baptist was a 'relation' (some say cousin) of Mary the mother of Jesus making Jesus and John possibly cousins or second cousins. Scripture also tells of Jesus' brothers and sisters (children Mary had after Jesus was born), but nowhere does it even hint that Mary, Martha and Lazarus were related to Jesus. If they were, it seems unthinkable that, in the many references to them and their home at Bethany, no mention was made of such a relationship. We are told that Mary and Martha were sisters and that Lazarus was their brother, but that is all.
How long was lazarus dead?
The Bible doesn't elaborate on that as the event was to explain death as sleeping in the tomb (see John 11:11-14). This 'resurrection' was to show the people that Jesus truly is God and can raise the dead - which He will do for all who died at the Judgment process (not a sentencing trial but a chance to repent with full knowledge of God and His Law as it will be written upon their hearts - Ezekiel 11: 18-20).Popular teachings have the dead going immediately to either their reward in heaven or their eternal punishment in hell. This is not biblical but more philosophical (Egyptian, Greek and Babylonian). This example of Lazarus is just one of the teachings on death as sleep. In this event, Lazarus had not gone to either heaven or hell. He had been simply entombed, where he "slept" in death until Jesus called him out of the grave by a miraculous resurrection. It doesn't get any plainer than that.Various stories through the years had Lazarus living either until Jesus' resurrection or a full life of the time. No one knows for sure except that he, like all mankind is surely dead now awaiting the Judgment call.
What is one good thing did Jesus do?
Jesus performed many miracles, just one of them is when he raised Lazarus from the dead.
What does Lazarus mean?
In Luke's Gospel, Lazarus was the name of a figurative person in a parable about his death and hypothetical resurrection. He is not portrayed as a real person.John's Gospel, chapter 11, says that Lazarus was the brother of Mary and Martha, and tells of Jesus raising Lazarus from the dead. This became the trigger for the arrest and trial of Jesus, when the chief priests and Pharisees said (John 11:47-48), "What do we? for this man doeth many miracles. If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation." Then in John 12:10, the chief priests plotted to put Lazarus to death.New Testament scholars notice that the two sisters, Mary and Martha, and Lazarus occur only in Luke's Gospel and John's Gospel. In Luke, Mary and Martha are not even the sisters of Lazarus, although the two accounts contain some important parallels.
What are some other examples of Jesus performing miracles?
Jesus did many miracles like healing the ten lepers,turning water into wine, raising Lazarus from the dead. The list can go on.
What is John chapter eleven verse forty five?
"Therefore many of the Jews who had come to visit Mary, and had seen what Jesus did, put their faith in him." This comes after Jesus raised his friend Lazarus from death. Lazarus was the brother of Mary and Martha who all lived together in the village of Bethany. (Do not confuse this Mary with Jesus' mother Mary or with Mary Magdalene who were diffferent people). Jesus deliberately waited for the death of Lazarus rather than cure him when he was sick (verse 6 'Yet when he heard that Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was two more days). This deliberate act was to ensure that people realised just who he was. He arrived at Bethany four days after Lazarus' death . In verse 25 Jesus stated: ' I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?" he asked Martha. "Yes, Lord," she told him, "I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world." Despite their doubts, Jesus then performed one of his great miracles. He prayed: "Father, I thank you that you have heard me. I knew that you always hear me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing here, that they may believe that you sent me." When he had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!" The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face. Jesus said to them, "Take off the grave clothes and let him go." This miracle had a profound effect on the people around - including the Jewish authorities who saw him as a threat. Lazarus, though he had died, was now alive and well, and news spread of this like wildfire (well, wouldn't it do so today too?). Many people made a commitment to Jesus as a result of this miracle - hence verse 45.
Where the Jesus guy is today?
Jesus is everywhere.Like God (His Father), He is omnipresent, which means present everywhere. He is in heaven and on the Earth - everywhere.No grave or bones have ever been found that belong to Jesus. There have been many hoaxes, but unlike prophets of other religions, He has no grave anywhere.
What does it mean when Jesus is crying on a cross?
Jesus is not crying for his own sake, however, he is crying because of a world filled with sin. Though his sacrifice has paved a way of redemption, he knows that many will turn their backs on him and his Father and thus be condemned to an eternity with out God. Another example, when Jesus was called to the tomb of Lazarus and was speaking with Mary and her sister, he asked the men to roll away the stone, when one spoke and stated Lazarus has been dead, I believe it was 7 days, surely he stinks by now. Shortly after this the simple and shortest verse in the Bible occurs, Jesus Wept. Jesus did not weep for Lazarus, nor did he weep because Lazarus was dead, he wept because of the lack of faith those around him had.
