Many people ask themselves what is good Friday, good Friday is the Friday before Easter Sunday. some people may ask themselves Why is it called Good Friday? The name may be derived from 'God's Friday' in the same way that good-bye is derived from 'God be with you'.It is 'good' because the barrier of sin was broken.
what happened on Good Friday

| Tree crosses, the middle cross was for Jesus http://www.google.com/ |
Jesus was arrested and was tried in a mock trial, he was handed over to the Roman soldiers to be beaten and flogged with whips. A crown of long, sharp thorn was thrust upon his head. Jesus was forced to carry his own cross outside the city to skull Hill. H e was so weak after the beating that a man named Simon, who was from Cyrano, was pulled from the crowd and forced to carry Jesus cross the rest of the way. Jesus was nailed to the cross. Two other criminals were crucified with him, their cross were on either side of him.
A sign above Jesus read, "The king of Jews".
According to the Bible
The third hour of the day - Jesus was nailed to the cross
(9:00 am). The six hour of the day - the darkness covered the land
(12:00 noon). The ninth hour of the day - the darkness left and the Lord died
(3:00 pm). These hours in the bible are calculated from the first hour of the day, being six in the morning. His death paid the penalty not for his own wrong doings but for ours. We have no reason not to remember this day in our live. this is the powerful weekend you don't want to miss.
lets just hope this day reminded people of the principles of humanity.

ReplyDeletegirl the things of god that we worship you wont understan them, just celebrate it.
Deletesome people only go to church on good friday and christmas day so i want to know what is the cause of that?
ReplyDeleteit becausethey are making church a religion, not something that live within them, hope you not one of those.
Deletei fellowshiped at change bible church this easter and i must say that ntokozo mbambo and her husband mbulelo both from MTN joyous celebration where worshiping as if it was the last three days of worship. i must say that Good friday or easter hliday's are celebrated in different ways each year. i have never enjoyed myself at church as much as i did during easter. the message was powereful. the paster said that everything we touch, we must command it to be fruitful and multiply but the best message of all was that i am fearfully and wonderfully made by God. the ministry, prais and worship were marvelous. i just wish i invited the whole P.R class to celebrate with me so that you can understand what good friday is trully about.
ReplyDeletethat what we should do when we are in church worship God as if it the last day on earth.
DeleteCelebrating good friday this year was the best,i didnt travel or anything but the little things we did with my family were a true blessing.
ReplyDeleteWe praise God for that.
