Sub-Topic 1: FRIENDSHIP BETWEEN JESUS, MARTHA AND MARY WAS CORDIAL: LUKE 10: 32-42

Friendship may be defined as an association of loving companionship, the most recognizable example being that between David and Saul’s son, Jonathan.

Mary and Martha were friends of Jesus, Lazarus was their brother. Martha was the first to receive Jesus into her house. She later called Mary who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to his teaching. Martha wanted to please Jesus by making sure that everything was fine but the serving distracted her from listening to Jesus. She asked Jesus why He did not care that Mary left her alone to serve and that He should tell Mary to help. Jesus answered her that Mary had chosen the best thing which would not be taken from her and that Martha was only worried and anxious about many things.

Sub-Topic 2: FRIENDSHIP BETWEEN JESUS AND LAZARUS JOHN 11: 1-44

Lazarus is the brother of Mary and Martha, they lived in Bethany, and he was also the friend of Jesus. One day he became ill, his sisters sent to Jesus saying Lord the one you love is sick, Jesus said the sickness is not unto death, it is for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified by means of it. Jesus stayed two days longer instead of going immediately.
