Good Friday, also known as “Holy
Friday,” is the Friday immediately
preceding Easter Sunday.

Here is something i find
interesting, and I think it may
interest you as well, just as we step
into the Ester celebration Season;
Assuming that Jesus was crucified
and died on a Friday, should
Christians remember Jesus’ death
by celebrating Good Friday?

The Bible does not instruct
Christians to remember Christ’s
death by honoring a certain day.

The Bible does give us freedom in
these matters, however. Romans
14:5 tells us, “One man considers
one day more sacred than another;
another man considers every day
alike.

Each one should be fully convinced
in his own mind.” Rather than
remembering Christ’s death on a
certain day, once a year, the Bible
instructs us to remember Christ’s
death by observing the Lord’s
Supper. First Corinthians 11:24-26
declares, “…do this in
remembrance of me…for whenever
you eat this bread and drink this
cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death
until he comes.”

Why is Good Friday referred to as
“good”? What the Jewish
authorities and Romans did to Jesus
was definitely not good (see
Matthew chapters 26-27).

However, the results of Christ’s
death are very good! Romans 5:8,
“But God demonstrates his own
love for us in this: While we were
still sinners, Christ died for us.”

First Peter 3:18 tells us, “For Christ
died for sins once for all, the
righteous for the unrighteous, to
bring you to God. He was put to
death in the body but made alive
by the Spirit.”

We wish all 9iceunites a blissful
Easter celebration ahead may the
season bring forth good tidings to
us all and our families…
