Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me will live, even though they die;

and those who live and believe in me will never die. Do you believe this?"

Just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, in the same way the Son gives life to those he wants to.

I am telling you the truth: the time is coming---the time has already come---when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear it will come to life.

The Father and I are one."

Then God commanded, "Let there be light"---and light appeared.

The LORD kills and restores to life; he sends people to the world of the dead and brings them back again.

When he spoke, the world was created; at his command everything appeared.

He said to me, "Mortal man, can these bones come back to life?" I replied, "Sovereign LORD, only you can answer that!"

Tell them that I, the Sovereign LORD, am saying to them: I am going to put breath into you and bring you back to life.

So I prophesied as I had been told. While I was speaking, I heard a rattling noise, and the bones began to join together.

God said to me, "Mortal man, prophesy to the wind. Tell the wind that the Sovereign LORD commands it to come from every direction, to breathe into these dead bodies, and to bring them back to life."

I will not save this people from the world of the dead or rescue them from the power of death. Bring on your plagues, death! Bring on your destruction, world of the dead! I will no longer have pity for this people.

A young man named Eutychus was sitting in the window, and as Paul kept on talking, Eutychus got sleepier and sleepier, until he finally went sound asleep and fell from the third story to the ground. When they picked him up, he was dead.

Then he went back upstairs, broke bread, and ate. After talking with them for a long time, even until sunrise, Paul left.

He will change our weak mortal bodies and make them like his own glorious body, using that power by which he is able to bring all things under his rule.

I am the living one! I was dead, but now I am alive forever and ever. I have authority over death and the world of the dead.

He bent over and saw the linen cloths, but he did not go in.

and the cloth which had been around Jesus' head. It was not lying with the linen cloths but was rolled up by itself.

"Take the stone away!" Jesus ordered. Martha, the dead man's sister, answered, "There will be a bad smell, Lord. He has been buried four days!"

But Jesus gave them strict orders not to tell anyone, and he said, "Give her something to eat."

The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother.
