Why Is Good Friday Good? – Richard E. Simmons III

Why Is Good Friday Good? – Richard E. Simmons III

Why is Good Friday good? In this year's special message that Richard gives each year on Good Friday, he discusses

  • Jesus' conversation with the two criminals
  • The 3 hours of darkness that fell over the land
  • The moment that Jesus finally died

From Luke 23:39-43, we read: “One of the criminals who were hanged there was hurling abuse at Him, saying, “Are You not the Christ? Save Yourself and us!” 

But the other responded, and rebuking him, said, “Do you not even fear God, since you are under the same sentence of condemnation? And we indeed are suffering justly, for we are receiving what we deserve for our crimes; but this Man has done nothing wrong.” 

And he was saying, “Jesus, remember me when You come into Your kingdom!” And He said to him, “Truly I say to you, today you will be with Me in Paradise.”
