Summary: Mary Anoints Jesus at Bethany, The Plot to Kill Lazarus, The Triumphal Entry

So the chief priests made plans to put Lazarus to death as well, because on account of him many of the Jews were going away and believing in Jesus. ~ John 12:10-11

As a result of what Jesus did for Lazarus, he became a target for Jesus’ enemies. You will become a target for Jesus’ enemies when Jesus blesses you to bring people to Him, but that is what life is all about, leading people to the Kingdom of God.
