>>That’s true, Jesus raised up Lazarus and Jairus’ daughter.<<

They were also seen alive and died later. I do so hope you understand the difference of the resurrection to eternal life and being raised from the dead like Jesus did on multiple occasions.

Matthew 27:52 And the graves were opened: and many bodies of the saints that had slept arose,
Matthew 27:53 And coming out of the tombs after his resurrection, came into the holy city, and appeared to many.

No where does Scripture say those who came from their graves and walked about Jerusalem ever returned to their graves. So there goes the bogus, “I do so hope ...” hokum.

Yes, I do know that Lazarus and Jairus’ daughter both died later, although Scripture doesn’t actually say so.

The message of these miracles is that Jesus is God and can raise the dead.

Remember that when He raised Lazarus, He specifically speaks of the resurrection, He says “I am the resurrection and the life, He who believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live.”

Again, it is not contradictory to Scripture to believe that Mary is with her Son at His will.
