Paul outlines some of its importance in 1 Corinthians 15 that if Christ was not resurrected, all Christian belief is in vain.
1 Corinthians 15:17 - And if Christ is not risen, then our preaching is empty and your faith is also empty.
1 Cor. 15:20-22 - But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead. For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive.
It means that death was defeated at the cross by jesus , and all who believe in Jesus shall arise on that great day ot are faith is in vain.
The story of Lazarus is important for Christians because it demonstrates Jesus' power over death and foreshadows his own resurrection. It serves as a powerful reminder of Jesus' divinity and his ability to bring life even in the face of death. It also offers hope and comfort to believers that eternal life is possible through Jesus.
The significance of raising Lazarus from the dead, was to give us hope, that we to as believers would one day rise in Christ on that glorious day.
Also, the following verses indicate that this event was what precipitated the final plot to kill Jesus. The many people that were starting to follow Jesus due to this miracle made the religious leaders jealous. This idea is further backed up during the trial where it is commented that Pilate knew they had delivered Him for envy. In other words He was attracting too much attention and too many followers.
45Then many of the Jews which came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on him. 46But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Jesus had done. 47Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council, and said, What do we? for this man doeth many miracles. 48If we let him thus alone, all men will believe on him: and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation. 49And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them, Ye know nothing at all,50Nor consider that it is expedient for us, that one man should die for the people, and that the whole nation perish not.51And this spake he not of himself: but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Jesus should die for that nation;52And not for that nation only, but that also he should gather together in one the children of God that were scattered abroad.53Then from that day forth they took counsel together for to put him to death.
It shows we must have faith and we can arise again.
In the Bible, Lazarus was a man who Jesus brought back to life after he had been dead for four days. After being resurrected, Lazarus continued living on earth until he died a natural death many years later. Some traditions believe Lazarus eventually became a bishop and spread Christianity.

The story of Lazareth is a parable by Jesus, in Luke 16:19-31. When Jesus spoke of the angel carrying away Lazarus to the bosom of Abraham, this was intended allegorically, to mean that he died and went to heaven. In the parable, it was important that Lazarus be clearly understood as taken to heaven, to create a contrast to the fate of the rich man.
Lazarus has 2 sister according to the bible, they are Mary and Martha. Read John 11:1-2AnswerIn Luke's Gospel, Lazareth did not have any sisters, as the story of Lazarus was only a parable. In John's gospel the sisters of Lazarus were Mary and Martha.
Yes - in Luke and John.Luke 16:20-31 contains a brief story of Jesus visiting the sisters, Mary and Martha, while Lazarus is in a parable that mentions his resurrection hypothetically. Some see parallels between this story and an earlier Egyptian myth, and believe that the name Lazarus has Egyptian origins.John 11:43-44 contains an important episode, in which Jesus visited the sisters, Mary and Martha, and resurrected their dead brother, Lazarus. The coincidences of name, death and hypothetical or actual resurrection of Lazarus is taken as strong evidence that the concept was taken by John from Luke's Gospel.
The Christmas story is important to Christians because it commemorates the birth of Jesus Christ, who is believed to be the savior of the world in Christian faith. It symbolizes God's love for humanity and the fulfillment of prophecies about the Messiah. It is a time of celebration and reflection on the significance of Jesus' birth for believers.
No, there is no account in the Bible where Barabbas and Lazarus met. Barabbas is mentioned in relation to Jesus's crucifixion and release, while Lazarus is mentioned in the story of his resurrection by Jesus. Their stories are separate and there is no mention of them meeting.
A:There are two persons called Lazarus in the New Testament. The first is in a parable in Luke's Gospel, which tells of Lazarus hypothetically raised from the dead. This Lazarus was not intended to be understood as a real person, so the question does not apply. The second is in John's Gospel, which says that Jesus raised him from the dead after several days. The gospel does not say anything about the second death of Lazarus, although it does say that the priests talked about having Lazarus killed (John 12:10). John's Gospel as a whole is loosely based on Luke's Gospel, and it can be demonstrated that this story of Lazarus was inspired by Luke's parable about the other Lazarus. Thus, even John's Lazarus was not a real person. John's Gospel does not say that Lazarus died, but there is nothing in the story to suggest that he would live forever.

I think Christians don't believe this.Hospices are important to all people not so important to Christians.
