Sin is Spiritual Death, Faith is Entering Eternal Life (Homily)
When Jesus entered Jerusalem, people were not only interested in seeing Him, but also Lazarus who was recently raised from the dead. This is important to each of us because we spiritually die a little bit when we sin. God resuscitates us while we still live through the sacraments, prayer, and the life of faith, hope, and love.
