This
is history
In
the Galilee province of Jerusalem 2000 years ago, Jesus was teaching humanity,
brotherhood, unity, peace and non-violence to the people. With this, the people
there started believing him to be the Supreme Father. People started putting
their thoughts in their lives. This caused religious superstitions and false
religious leaders to be jealous of them. The religious leaders there started
calling Jesus an enemy of humanity. But the popularity of Lord Jesus continued
to increase day by day.
Hung
on the cross
Seeing
the growing popularity of Christ, the religious leaders started filling the
ears of Pilate, the ruler of Rome, against him. They said that this young man who
describes himself as the son of God, makes a great sinner and talks about God . Thereby accusing Jesus of contempt of religion and treason. Also issued a
decree to punish him on the cross. For this, many times they were whipped and
whipped, crowned with thorns. Jesus is forced to carry the cross on his
shoulders. Finally, he brutally hangs two other man with a nail on the
cross.

was darkness all over the country from noon to 3 pm, when Jesus Christ gave up
his life after a scream, at the same time a jalala (earthquake) occurred. , The
doors of the tombs were torn open and the curtain of the holy temple was torn
from top to bottom.
How did the name Good Friday
According to Christianity, Jesus is the son of God. He was sentenced to death for removing the darkness of ignorance. To appease the hardliners, Pilate orders Jesus to be hanged to death on the cross. They were tortured in many ways. But Jesus kept praying for them that 'O God! Forgive them because they don't know what they are doing. ' The day that Christ was hanged on the cross was Friday. Since then, that day came to be known as Good Friday. Good Friday is also known as Holy Friday, Black Friday and Great Friday
Pray
in church
Christ
hung on the cross for six hours and during the last three hours the entire
kingdom was darkened. Then a scream came and with that the Lord gave up his
life. It is said that when the Lord gave up his life, a strong fire came. The
doors of the tombs broke open, and the curtain of the holy temple kept bursting
down. For this reason, people gather in the church later this afternoon and
pray at about 3 o'clock. However this entire week is considered sacred in
Christianity. But no celebrations are celebrated in the church except prayer.
