GOOD FRIDAY OF THE LORD'S PASSION AND DEATH.
GOOD FRIDAY OF THE LORD'S PASSION AND DEATH.
JESUS CHRIST WAS WOUNDED FOR OUR SINS.
“Look, I am bringing him out to you, so that you may know that I find no guilt in him.”
So Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple cloak.
And Pilate said to them,
“Behold, the man!”
"When the chief priests and the guards saw him they cried out,
“Crucify him, crucify him!”
"Pilate said to them,
“Take him yourselves and crucify him. I find no guilt in him.”
(The Passion of the Lord according to St John).
Friday 3rd March 2025, Good Friday of the Lord's Passion.
The Jewish leaders see the death of Jesus on the Cross as the execution of a criminal.
“If he were not a criminal, we would not have handed him over to you.”
In truth and in reality,
"But he was pierced for our sins,
crushed for our iniquity.
He bore the punishment that makes us whole, by his wounds we were healed." (Isaiah 52: 5).
How do you see the death of Jesus on the Cross?
"It is love "to the end" that confers on Christ's sacrifice its value as redemption and reparation, as atonement and satisfaction. He knew and loved us all when he offered his life. Now "the love of Christ controls us, because we are convinced that one has died for all; therefore all have died." (CCC 616).
We adore You O Christ and worship You because of Your Holy Cross You have redeemed the world.
In April, the Church honors the Most Holy Eucharist.
The Church teaches:
“The Eucharist is ‘the source and summit of the Christian life." (CCC 1324).
My flesh is real food and My blood is real drink says the Lord.
“Since Christ Himself has said, ‘This is My Body,’ who shall dare to doubt that it is His Body?” (St Cyril of Jerusalem).
