Good Friday

Painting by Edouard Vuillard

This Friday is good Friday because Christ has died for us, and this Sunday is happy Easter because Christ was raised!

- Sinclair B. Ferguson

Here are links to two talks by one of my favorite professors, pastors and theologians, Sinclair B. Ferguson, that I highly recommend you listen to this Easter season:
- Resisting the Cross
- Experiencing the Necessity of the Cross

⁸ but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. ⁹ Since, therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God. ¹⁰ For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, now that we are reconciled, shall we be saved by his life.

Romans 5: 8-10

¹⁷ And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is futile and you are still in your sins. ¹⁸ Then those also who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished. ¹⁹ If in Christ we have hope^[b] in this life only, we are of all people most to be pitied.

1 Corinthians 15:17-19
