Good, then stop commenting about what you don't know.

Remove the Logs in ya eye before the little or no dust in others eyes.

Emyben:


lol, are you more biblical than the Catholic Church?

Tell me why you think ya Church is Biblical?
The handkerchief craze? The GO sticker on homes and cars craze? The Prosperity swindler craze which Christ preached against? The Shouting in Prayers which Christ condemned and associated with the Hypocritical Pharisees?

The Tithe fraud as obviously visible today? Tell me another thing.

like I said. Remove the log in ya eyes first!
And lastly stop being a hateful Christian.

Christ said Don't Judge
Don't disobey the order of Christ whom you pretend to follow.

ceometromedia:
Good Friday is a Christian religious holiday commemorating the crucifixion of Jesus Christ and his death at Calvary. The holiday is observed during Holy Week as part of the Paschal Triduum on the Friday preceding Easter Sunday, and may coincide with the Jewish observance of Passover. It is also known as Holy Friday, Great Friday, Black Friday,or Easter Friday, though the last term properly refers to the Friday in Easter week.

1. Why is this day called "Good Friday"

It's not for the reason you might think.

Despite the fact that "good" is a common English word, tempting to say the name is based on the fact that something very good (our redemption) happened on this day, that's not where the name comes from.

Precisely where it does come from is disputed. The Catholic Encyclopedia explains:

The origin of the term Good is not clear. Some say it is from "God's Friday" (Gottes Freitag); others maintain that it is from the German Gute Freitag, and not specially English.

It is also argued that the name is based on a Medieval use of the word good where it meant "holy." Thus "Good Friday" would have come from "Holy Friday," the same way we have Holy Thursday and Holy Saturday.

2. How do we celebrate Good Friday today?

According to the main document governing the celebrations connected with Easter, Paschales Solemnitatis: On this day, when "Christ our passover was sacrificed," the Church:

meditates on the passion of her Lord and Spouse,

adores the cross,

commemorates her origin from the side of Christ asleep on the cross,

and intercedes for the salvation of the whole world.

3. Are fast and abstinence required on Good Friday?

Yes. Paschales Solemnitatis notes:

Good Friday is a day of penance to be observed as of obligation in the whole Church, and indeed through abstinence and fasting.


4. Are the sacraments celebrated on Good Friday?

For the most part, no. Good Friday is the only day of the year on which the celebration of Mass is forbidden.


5. What liturgical celebrations occur on this day?

The principal one is known as the Celebration of the Lord's Passion.


6. What happens after the Celebration of the Lord's Passion?

Paschales Solemnitatis notes: after the celebration, the altar is stripped; the cross remains however, with four candles.

7. Are other devotions appropriate to Good Friday?

Paschales Solemnitatis notes: Devotions such as the "Way of the Cross," processions of the passion, and commemorations of the sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary are not, for pastoral reasons, to be neglected.

Bro, these are traditions that existed before the bible as we know it.

Emyben:


But you celebrate Easter, right? and you recognize that the Friday before Easter is termed Good Friday.
Doesn't that make it a Christian rite?

So does it matter?
Or you just uncomfortable with the celebration originating from Catholics? hmm

The foundation of modern Western Christianity is the Roman Catholic Church...

Uncomfortable? Chairman, I no de carry religious matter for head like dandruff o but I just wanted you to make a clear distinction on your post cos u kinda chipped in church doctrine instead of universally accepted Christian beliefs. For instance
1. Jesus is the son of God (universal Christian belief)
2. Honor of Mary (church doctrine).
It's necessary to distinguish that cos your post began with CHRISTIAN holiday and not denominational wise. Enjoy ur day bro

Emyben:


In other words, you simply mean that Catholicism is not part of Christianity? hmm

If it's a Catholic Holiday.....It's a Christian Holiday. Thanks
