Read John 19:1-37
It was the single most horrible day in the history of the world. No incident has ever been more tragic, and no future event will ever match it. No surprise attack, no political assassination, no financial collapse, no military invasion, no atomic detonation or nuclear warfare, no cataclysmic act of terrorism, no large-scale famine or disease — can eclipse the darkness of that day.
No suffering has ever been so unfitting, no human has ever been so unjustly treated, and no other human has ever been so worthy of praise. No one else has ever lived without sin, and no other human has ever been God himself. No horror surpasses what transpired on a hill outside Jerusalem almost two millennia ago, yet we call it “Good” Friday.
