Ok ... the part that I don't understand about Jesus's Death.. is The day that Jesus died is called good Friday..But why is it called Good Friday if He died on that day..I have asked lots of people and the say that they don't know..Because i personally believe that it wouldn't be a Good Friday..It Just doesn't make since to me..

Thanks..

The day that Jesus physically died is arguably much more important that the day that He was physically born....and yet, we as Christians, seem to put more emphasis on His birth.

It is called 'Good Friday' because it marks the beginning of Salvation for those that are New Creations in the Resurrected life that follows....

another possibility as far as it's names origin Good Friday = God's Friday..e.g. Good bye= God be'ye.

Its good Friday because its good that Jesus died, if He didn't we'd all be in our sin still.
Keep note though that Good Friday is a day invented by Catholics (I think it was Catholics) We celebrate Jesus death and resurrection everyday :)

I dont know about you, but knowing what i know about his death NOW... I would be jumping for joy if i saw him crucified. im glad he died, that means we can die with him and be just like him in this life and the next.
Think about it. We should be glad he died.

We should be glad He was crucified, because He was crucified for you and me! Resurrected to give you and me life!
