1 cross + 3 nails = 4 giveness
Billy Graham: Christ broke the bonds of death by His resurrection, and from that moment on, Satan was a defeated foe.
More from Billy:
For Good Friday read 1 Cor 15: 44-49
Good Friday celebrates the day our Lord
died for our sins on the cross. I have often
sat by the hour and tried to imagine the agony
and suffering He went through because of our
sins. At one point He said from the cross, “It is
finished” (John 19:30). He meant that God had
accepted His work on the cross as the penalty
for our sins. Christ’s death on our behalf is the
reason God can forgive us and still be just. And
His death teaches us the depth and breadth
that there should be in our forgiveness of one
another. While that holy Friday
was tremendous, it was only a
prelude to Sunday morning
when He was raised from the
dead. Godly women had come
to see His tomb, but angels made
the glorious announcement,
“He has risen!” (Luke 24:6).
His resurrection guaranteed
that we, too, will be raised, if
we are believers and obeyers
of His Word.
As you celebrate the truth that Jesus came from
Heaven to redeem you, are you reflecting His
likeness to those around you?
