Derek writes: Good Friday, what an amazing day we have had today in 2022, beautifully warm sunshine, the majestic Oaks leafing out, Cherry blossom and the Power of the cross no less diminished.
One side of the coin points to a terrible day when we remember Jesus’ awful death by Crucifixion, a method of capital punishment which was eventually stopped for being too brutal.
but death was not the end as the perfect sacrifice of Jesus on the cross was the ultimate act of love to cover our sins and make us all Holy before God.
Jesus was raised from death on the third day showing that he was truly the son of God, meaning that 2,000 years later we can still use the phrase “Good Friday”.
