Easter as the day of Christ's crucifixion. The Friday became known as Great Friday, Holy Friday or Good Friday. CELEBRATING EASTER Easter It is a time share our faith and to be part of a greater story. The redemption of mankind. I would encourage readers to look more closely at the Jewish festivals and feasts especially Passover, it will enrich your faith in Jesus Christ. The Old Testament continually points to Christ as the Savior. Remember the words of Jesus as He celebrated the Passover meal with His disciples. 1 Corinthians 11:25-26 E.S.V “This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me. For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord's death until he comes." The apostle Peter reminds of the ultimate sacrifice for our salvation, in his letter to the churches… 1 Peter 1:18-20 E.S.V - "Knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot. He was foreknown before the foundation of the world but was made manifest in the last times for the sake of you who through him are believers in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God."
