GOOD FRIDAY: JESUS CHRIST’S SACRIFICE FOR THE WORLD (Matthew 9:13):
We must take a moment of silence in prayer this Good Friday to acknowledge the magnitude of God’s love for humankind (John 1:1-4, 14, 3:16-18).
“[SURELY HE
HATH BORNE OUR GRIEFS, AND CARRIED OUR SORROWS]: yet we did esteem him
stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our
transgressions, [HE WAS BRUISED FOR OUR INIQUITIES]: the chastisement of our
peace was upon him; [AND WITH HIS STRIPES WE ARE HEALED]. He was oppressed, and
he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: [HE IS BROUGHT AS A LAMB TO THE
SLAUGHTER], and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, [SO HE OPENETH NOT HIS
MOUTH]” (Isaiah 53:4-5,7).
It doesn’t
matter who we are in this world, if we want to be freed from this earth on the
Last Day to make it to the next world without an end in New Heavens and a New
Earth (Isaiah 65:17-18) (John 3:16-18, 14:2–3) (Ephesians 3:9-12) (2 Peter
3:13) (Revelation 21:1-2), the word of God says:
“[HE THAT
HATH THE SON HATH LIFE]; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life. [IF
THE SON THEREFORE SHALL MAKE YOU FREE, YE SHALL BE FREE INDEED]” (John 8:36).
“[FOR THERE
IS ONE GOD, AND ONE MEDIATOR BETWEEN GOD AND MEN, THE MAN CHRIST JESUS: WHO
GAVE HIMSELF A RANSOM FOR ALL], to be testified in due time” (1 Timothy 2:5–6).
“[FOR YE ARE
DEAD, AND YOUR LIFE IS HID WITH CHRIST IN GOD]” (Colossians 3:2–3). “Unto him
be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, [WORLD WITHOUT
END]. Amen” (Ephesians 3:21).
