Why call it “Good Friday?”
What’s good about lies, hate, pain, blood, sweat, tears, misery, torture, betrayal, abandonment & death?
What is good is the fact that because Jesus experienced this, you and I don’t have to. As of Good Friday, we were bought & paid for. And believe me, no one or nothing has the resources to buy us back from God. Furthermore, God is not in the exchange business (well, except for the Great Exchange, but you know what I mean!).
