“The death, and the burial, and the resurrection of Jesus happened over three days. Friday was the day of suffering and pain and agony. Saturday was the day of doubt and confusion and misery. But Easter, that Sunday, was the day of hope and joy and victory. You will face these three days over and over and over in your lifetime. And when you do, you’ll find yourself asking, as I did, three fundamental questions: Number one, what do I do in my days of pain? Two, how do I get through my days of doubt and confusion? Three, how do I get to the days of joy and victory? The answer is Easter.” TwoPainFacesJoySufferingThreeJesusAnswersNumbersDoubtHappenedVictoryAskingFundamentalsMiseryLifetimeConfusionSundayFinding YourselfResurrectionAgonySaturdayEasterFridayBurialJesus ResurrectionSuffering And Pain Author:Rick Warren
“The essence of that by which Jesus overcame the world was not suffering, but obedience. Yes, men may puzzle themselves and their hearers over the question where the power of the life of Jesus and the death of Jesus lay; but the soul of the Christian always knows that it lay in the obedience of Christ. He was determined at every sacrifice to do His Father's will. Let us remember that; and the power of Christ's sacrifice may enter into us, and some little share of the redemption of the world may come through us, as the great work came through Him.” KnowsMenWorldMayLittlesSoulChristianRememberSufferingFatherJesusChristSacrificeShareEssenceLaysDeterminedRedemptionObediencePuzzlesFridayGreat WorkGood Friday Author:Phillips Brooks
“So the main question is not, Which humans brought about the death of Jesus but, What did the death of Jesus bring about for humans - including Jews and Muslims and Buddhists and Hindus and nonreligious secularists - and all people everywhere?When it is all said and done, the most crucial question is: Why? Why did Christ suffer and die? Not why in the sense of cause, but why in the sense of purpose?” PeopleHumansSaidDonePurposeSufferingDiesJesusCausesChristIncludingJewBuddhistCrucialFridaySaid And DoneGood Friday Author:John Piper
