The Crucifixion Day - What Was It?
And why does it matter?Nothing is more central to the Christian than the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
- His ability to conquer man's greatest enemy - DEATH - is the rock on which humankind receiving everlasting life depends.
Are you a believer? John 3:36:"He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him." - There are three main views on which day the Lord Jesus died and was buried. Only one of them completely fits the Biblical narrative. Is that important? YES. There is an exactness to God's Word. If it is infallible (it is), complete (it is) and that it points us to Jesus Christ, the only way of salvation (it does), then it must be correct in every way.
