www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com ApplicationWhen many people think about mummies, they think about Halloween costumes, scary movies, and Egypt. But the Bible also has a story about someone who was wrapped up like a mummy. His name was Lazarus and his story can be found in John 11: 1-46. When Lazarus died, Jesus brought him back to life. But his sisters were not SCARED, they were very happy. www.CreativeHolidayIdeas.com
www.CreativeYouthIdeas.com Jesus had brought their brother back and he was the same person he was as before. Jesus did it so that he could show how powerful God is and also so we could know for sure that he will also bring us back to life in heaven if we believe in him and trust him. www.CreativeHolidayIdeas.com
