Now from the sixth hour until the ninth hour there was darkness over all the land. And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, “Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?” that is, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?”Some of those who stood there, when they heard that, said, “This Man is calling for Elijah!” Immediately one of them ran and took a sponge, filled it with sour wine and put it on a reed, and offered it to Him to drink.The rest said, “Let Him alone; let us see if Elijah will come to save Him.”And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice, and yielded up His spirit.Then, behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth quaked, and the rocks were split, and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.So when the centurion and those with him, who were guarding Jesus, saw the earthquake and the things that had happened, they feared greatly, saying, “Truly this was the Son of God!”

John 11:25 “Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in Me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in Me will never die. Do you believe this?”So Why did Jesus Weep?John 11:35 “Jesus wept.”Consider this: Jesus knew He was about to raise Lazarus. Is it because He knows that even though He will be raised that they are all going to have to go through this again?Perhaps it is because Jesus knows that there are people there and throughout history that will not understand why He came?Perhaps it is because they don’t understand the difference between existing and living.It’s vital that we understand in our vernacular what Jesus has said:We have to understand that when Martha heard Jesus say this she was not just hearing the words she was hearing the meaning of the words!Jesus uses – and the Holy Spirit records – specific words and phrases:The resurrection: Anastasis – the author of resurrection,Life: Zoe – life, source of spiritual life,Believes: Pisteuo – commit to the charge or power of,Live: Zao – to be alive in a state of salvation from spiritual death.Die: Apothnesko – to decay, to die the death of final condemnation and misery,What Martha hears is this:“I Am the Author of resurrection and the Source of spiritual life; everyone who commits their life to Me will be alive in salvation from spiritual death even though their tent decays they will never die the death of final condemnation and misery.”Then Jesus asks a very important question- “Will you commit your life to Me?”Some important truths for us to consider:1. There are two ways to die – One is the end of one’s physical existence; the other is the end of one’s spirit – Lazarus existence has ceased but his life is still very much present.Heb.9:27-28 “Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, 28 so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.”2. Jesus came to put an end to the second death– there is a death of final condemnation and misery, yet Jesus is saying, not here, not today! He is saying it to us todayJohn 11:4 “When He heard this, Jesus said, “This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for God’s glory so that God’s Son may be glorified through it.”John 3:16-18 “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him. 18Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.”3. Will you make the commitment to live?– John 11:25 “Do you believe this?”Will you commit to Jesus way of living?Believing is not simply thinking or feeling; it is actually committing our lives to Him.Rev. 2:11 “Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. The one who is victorious will not be hurt at all by the second death.”Who is Victorious? The one who has committed their life to following JesusMatt.6:33 “But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.”Are we more concerned about what we might have to give up over what Jesus gives?To me this is the saddest part of the whole story:John 11:48 “If we let Him go on like this, everyone will believe in Him, and then the Romans will come and take away both our temple and our nation.”What is it t

Me: Some call it cuteness, some call it charisma, some even call it animal magnetism: Hi, I’m Jack Werner, and today I’ll be talking about why we try so much harder to conserve likeable species and what this means for endangered animals everywhere. With me is my good friend, Not me. Not me: Hello there Me: Let’s get to it. From China’s giant pandas to the elephants of the African savanna to America’s iconic bald eagles, there are some animals that just captivate us. In fact, a study estimated that 54% of all wildlife funding in the United States is devoted to just 1.8% of America’s endangered species. Not me: Why exactly do we value some endangered species so much more than others? Me: Most endangered species aren’t economically valuable, so we usually value them for emotional reasons. Different people are captivated by different animals, but there are some general patterns to what people like. Typically, physical and behavioral similarity to humans is an important factor. Gorillas hold their babies like we do. Chimps use elaborate tools. Elephants mourn their dead. All these actions resonate with us. Not me: What else? Me: Another huge factor, so to speak, is size. Large animals awe us and instinctively demand our respect. Culture plays a large role too. If an animal is deemed sacred in a certain religion, such as cows in Hindu India, you can bet they’ll be conserved. Not me: So basically, the pretty, strong, and cool animals get all the attention. Sounds like high school. But ugly, small, or less dramatic animals don’t have any less of a right to exist, do they? Me: No, they absolutely have the same right to exist. And this brings us to an interesting point. Conservation groups that seem to care about only charismatic animals actually help broad swaths of animals, and they do so in a fascinating way. First, they’ve guessed that people are much more likely to give money to conserve the Panda than, say, the south China Sika deer, which lives in the same area. By that alone, they’re able to conserve more species. But the really cool thing is that these charismatic animals are sometimes keystone species, and saving them can often help preserve all animals in their ecosystem. The logic is that if animals at the top are thriving, everything below them in the foodchain must be doing ok. Not me: Do you have any examples of that? Me: Sure. The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone helped keep elk populations in check, which resulted in a large increase in plant biomass. Many targeted charismatic species have huge ranges, like the Siberian tiger. Saving this tiger means making sure it has room to roam, and this helps all the animals in the forest. Another example is the spotted owl. These owls need old growth forests to survive, so protecting the owls means saving the trees they nest in from logging. Not me: Ok, you’ve convinced me that people are more willing to save charismatic species. But if people only care about specific species, wouldn’t they be fine with just putting them in zoos and not helping overall ecosystems? Me: Great question. Although there hasn’t been much work done on this, I’ll give a tentative no. In 2003, economists conducted a study on people’s willingness to pay to conserve pandas. They found that the average American is willing to pay $3.90 to care for caged pandas and $8.43 for penned pandas. But their respondents were willing to pay a whopping $14.86 for a panda reserve. Extrapolating, this means that people value charismatic animals living in their natural environments, which will indirectly lead to the preservation of everything else in those ecosystems. Ideally, entire environments would be conserved for their own sake, but these charismatic animals can be tremendously effective proxies. Not me: Interesting! Me: Absolutely. That’s all the time we have for today; thank you for listening. Until next time, this has been Jack Werner for Hadly’s Holoceneapalooza. Photo: Creative Commons by J Patrick Fischer
