Hi,

I was wondering if there were any teachings regarding the eventual fate of Lazarus.

Official teachings and opinions are welcome!

Thank you,

Eric

From the Catholic Encyclopedia:

LAZARUS OF THE MIRACLE
This personage was the brother of Martha and Mary of Bethania; all three were beloved friends of Jesus (John 11:5). At the request of the two sisters Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead (John 11:41-44). Soon thereafter, the Saturday before Palm Sunday, Lazarus took part in the banquet which Simon the Leper gave to Jesus in Bethania (Matthew 26:6-16; Mark 14:3-11; John 12:1-11). Many of the Jews believed in Jesus because of Lazarus, whom the chief priests now sought to put to death. The Gospels tell us no more of Lazarus.

If you are speaking of Lazarus the brother of Mary and Martha and friend of Jesus, then you are speaking of St. Lazarus of Bethany. You can read more about him here.
 
Thank you!
