12

JESUS (V.O.): Now, the religious leaders who were the Sabbath keepers were searching to get rid of me.

In the mean time, Lazarus and his sisters invited me to dinner. Martha served. Lazarus was sitting at the table with them. Mary came in with very expensive aromatic oils, anointed and massaged my feet, and then wiped them with her hair. The fragrance of the oils filled the house.

JUDAS ISCARIOT: Haven’t you heard what Jesus said? You got to sold everything and give the money to the poor.

Jesus: Leave her alone. She's honoring the day of my burial. You always have the poor with you. But you don't always have me.

JESUS (V.O.): Word got out that I was back in town. The people came to take a look, not only at me but also at Lazarus, who had been raised from the dead. Because of him, many are convinced that I am the one, they are waiting for.

So, the religious leaders plot to kill Lazarus as well.

Narrator: Next day, Jesus got a bike and rode it into the town. PEOPLE brought their towels and went out.

PEOPLE #3: Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of God! Yes! The President of the whole world!

JESUS (V.O.) : The crowd that have been with me when I called Lazarus from the tomb, raising him from the dead, was there giving eyewitness accounts. It was because they have spread the word of this latest God-sign that the crowd swelled to a welcoming parade.

THE RELIGIOUS LEADER: (threw up their hands) It's out of control. The world is sold after him.

JESUS (V.O.): There were some Chinese in town. They approached Phil, who was a Korean: "Sir, we want to see Jesus. Can you help us?" Phil went and told Andy. Andy and Phil together told me. I said:

JESUS : I am sorry but time is up now. The time has come for me to be glorified. (Talking to everyone) Listen carefully: If a grain of wheat is buried in the ground, it sprouts and reproduces itself many times over. In the same way, if you understand life, you will let it go, in love. Then, you'll have it forever, real and eternal.

(Looking at the people from China standing far) If any of you wants to serve me, then follow me. Then you'll be where I am. The Father will honor and reward anyone who serves me.

(Looking at his students) Now I am in trouble. But what am I going to say? 'Father, get me out of this'? No, this is why I came in the first place. I'll say, 'Father, put your glory on display.'

Narrator: A voice came out of the sky.

THE FATHER OF Jesus: I have glorified it, and will glorify it again.

PERSON #1: Was it a thunder!?

PERSON #2: An angel spoke to him!

Jesus: The voice didn't come for me but for you.
Now Satan, the ruler of this world, will be thrown out. And when I am lifted up from the earth, I will attract everyone to me and gather them around me.

PERSON #1: We heard from the Bible that the Leader lasts forever. How can it be necessary, for you to be lifted up, as you put it? Who are you, anyway?

Jesus: If you believe in me, you believe the One who sent me also. When you look at me, you in fact, look at the One who sent me.

Let me put it this way. For a brief time, the light is among you. Walk by the light. If you walk in the light, you know where you're going. As you have the light, believe in the light. Then the light will be within you, and shining through your lives. You'll be children of light.

I am the Light that has come into the world so that all may believe in me. I came to save the world.
