John 11:26

24 Martha replied, “I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day.”

25 Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in Me will live, even though he dies.

And everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die. Do you believe this?”

27 “Yes, Lord,” she answered, “I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.”

28 After Martha had said this, she went back and called her sister Mary aside to tell her, “The Teacher is here and is asking for you.”

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
