It is the day when Christians commemorate Jesus Christ's crucifixion. So why is it called Good Friday? https://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-magazine-monitor-27067136 1 Like

Because something good happened on that day. Something really good for humanity. Christ came to die, he gave himself up to be crucified. No one took his life from him by force. He laid it down himself for the liberation of humanity from the eternal grip of the devil. Without the shedding of blood there wouldn't have been redemption.

It is good because Christ died and worked out our salvation through dying on the cross and brought freedom to all. Firstly, this freedom is received by believing He died and rose and is seated at the right hand of God in Heaven. Hebrews 2:14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; 2:15 And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.. 1 Corinthians 2:8 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 4 Likes |

Christianity would have been too perfect without this story being added. A god allowed himself to be killed to redeem the world. Woke up and did not go show his killers who is boss but japa to heaven 11 Likes 6 Shares

Joromi12:. Lemme answer your question or clear your doubt about Jesus Jesus was God made flesh. Jesus was God's spirit which is God filling a woman and she gave birth. Just as God breath into Adam, so also, was Mary filled with the Spirit of God and she gave birth to a Man(flesh) and the flesh carried a Spirit (engine) which was God. Luke 1:35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. So, God is one. It was still God in Jesus because it was the breath of God which was also the Spirit of God. 2 Corinthians 5:19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Its like pouring a glass of water into another glass. Both glass carries water. So it is with God and Jesus. Now, why must Jesus come as a human. Adam lost it, a seed of Adam must fight to get it back. 1 Corinthians 15:22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made alive. So, Christ came to die so as to defeat the devil and grant us access to God and a life without sin, for without holiness no man can see God. Genesis 3:15 And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel. Her seed was Jesus Christ as prophesied since Genesis Matthew 12:40 For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

Good Friday is called "GOOD FRIDAY" because there was a perfect did that day. If not for Good Friday, I will have not have the lip to call Jesus my Lord.

Because without a shed of blood, there is no remission of sins, His blood gives us hope, Christianity is all about the death, the suffering and the transfiguration of Jesus Christ, without this, no Christianity |

The reason is still controversial as explained above. But what and why is this my biz? Good morning does not make a morning good, so, good Friday does not mean the Friday is good, even Jesus felt bad that day and asked God "Why art thou forsaken me". ? 1 Like |

dollarsplenty: It was good because it pleased God that Christ came to die Isaiah 53:10 Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.

nathdim: There is not D about it. Man(Adam) lost it to the devil, another Man(Jesus) took back what was stolen from the man(Adam). Now, since He(Jesus) collected it, He(Jesus) will make us what Adam should be and should have become. |

nathdim: This aint fairytales, so many religion has their believe hanging on the truth of the Bible who naturally are enemies of the gospel. What can you say about that. As a matter of fact, if these are just works by some romans, why do the so called enemies of the gospel also share the same line of origin and upmost similarities with us |

Joromi12:I don't believe that Jesus is God or weak. But like you said this story almost always portrays a weak and helpless God against Satan or devil one of his own creations. Certainly God could have just said, this day I've forgiven you all your sins, go and sin no more. No. The story is that God had to concur death whatever that means 1 Like |
