This day was formerly for the Jewish people a day of preparation for Easter, and was called by them the Parasceve; for us Christians it is the anniversary of the death and burial of our Lord who on this day, being Himself both High-Priest and Victim, offered Himself upon the cross for the salvation of the world.
Read about His passion and death, and what He has done for us here:

Although I'm a reformed evangelical protestant, I DO thank you for glorifying God, the Lord Jesus Christ on the special day of remembrance of His death and buril as High-Priest and Vicarious Victim and Substitute for us on the cross. Thanks to Him for paying the ultimate price for our salvation! And Thank you for sharing this Good News, Paul!

Thank you Jim,
ReplyDeleteI just couldn't help myself, and usually try to blog about these subjects on the major celebrations of the events
of the life of Our Lord.
All for His greater Honor and Glory.
