But does not raise Lazarus from the dead...
Jesus says that those who believe in him and the Lord, will never die. This means that they will be received into heaven and have eternal life thereafter. By: Richard Warren - May 03, 2008 - Public Category: Jesus Comforts the Sisters (1) Comments
What did Jesus mean when He said one can live even if he dies? Bonus question: Why did Jesus weep when He knew He would raise Lazarus?
What he meant is that a person can die here on earth but when he''Jesus'' comes back, the believers will go with him in Heaven to have ertenal life. I think Jesus weeped as a sign of Humbleness to the Lord that even if Lazarus had sinned before the Lord he could have mercy on him.

Jesus was talking about eternal life - that our belief in Him is all that is needed to never die, but to live forever with Him in Heaven.
Jesus wept because he felt compassion and also, I think, His tears were tears of disappointment and anger at their lack of faith in His power and grace. By: Patty - February 02, 2007 - Public Category: Jesus Comforts the Sisters

So when Jesus came,
he found that he had been in the tomb four days already. Now Bethany was near Jerusalem,
about fifteen stadia away. Many of the Jews had joined the
women around Martha and Mary, to console them concerning their brother.
Then when Martha heard
that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, but Mary stayed in the house.
Therefore Martha said to
Jesus, "Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn't have
died. Even now I know
that, whatever you ask of God, God will give you." Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again." Martha said to him,
"I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last
day."
Jesus said to her,
"I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes
in me will still live, even if he dies. Whoever lives and believes in me
will never die. Do you believe this?" She said to him,
"Yes, Lord. I have come to believe that you are the Christ, God's
Son, he who comes into the world."
When she had said
this, she went away, and called Mary, her sister, secretly, saying,
"The Teacher is here, and is calling you."
When she heard this,
she arose quickly, and went to him. Now Jesus had not yet come into
the village, but was in the place where Martha met him. Then the Jews who were with her
in the house, and were consoling her, when they saw Mary, that she rose up
quickly and went out, followed her, saying, "She is going to the tomb
to weep there." Therefore when Mary came to
where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell down at his feet, saying to him,
"Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn't have
died."
When Jesus therefore
saw her weeping, and the Jews weeping who came with her, he groaned in the
spirit, and was troubled, and said, "Where have you laid him?" They told him, "Lord, come and see."
Jesus wept.
The Jews therefore
said, "See how much affection he had for him!" Some of them said,
"Couldn't this man, who opened the eyes of him who was blind, have
also kept this man from dying?"
