Ummm some of you have said he died later.... considering that we should all take the bible 'literally' where does it say that he died later? And was it Jesus or God who brought him back to life - Unfortunately i'm finding a few holes in the plot. If it was God who brought both Jesus and Lazarus back, shouldn't we worship them both the same...... or was this all just bullshit to begin with????

The book of the history show that Lazarus was became a bishop for Cupors after Jesus rise him from the dead
and after 40 years he died again
in the Church there are other books not only the holy Bible.

Lazarus was a dear friend of Jesus and when he died Jesus actually cried. Lazarus was raised from the dead by Jesus and went on to live a normal life. He was not the only one Jesus raised from the dead, but that was only to a physical life here on earth. Eventually they all died. (again) Lazarus' remains are in Bethany, his home town and on the Island of Cyprus. Relics were big business during the crusades. So some of his bones are in Israel and some in the mediterranean. Lazarus was a sinful man just like the rest of us. He did not die for our sins and so we do not worship him.

Let me guess that you don't worship Jesus in the first place
So this isn't a real question, it's just a cheap shot at Christians.
Lazarus died - Jesus raised him from the dead - and at some point, he died again.

There are 2 kinds of reserections. One is into a new glorified body and the other is being brought to life in the same body.
Lazerus got his old body back. Jesus got a new body.
we worship Jesus because He is God, not because He came back to life.

Jesus proved the power of God to resurrect with Lazarus. He also proved it by his own impending death.
To answer your question directly, all of God's saints are still alive. All of them. It is us only that see them as dead. We judge by external standards, not the spiritual. We grow in spirituality when we realize that people really don't die, but only the body.

We were taught by the disciples to worship God the father, Jeaus is Lord and the Holy Spirit. Don't put your faith into anyone or anything else.

It was to demonstrate Jesus' power over death. Clearly, you have God issues.

@TubeRoot:
is it the power of (another/common) God, or Jesus as God?

That's kinda a jerkish thing to do. Laz's family had to watch him die twice? Jeez...
