Hey!
It’s Good Friday. If I may ask, what is good about the Friday? A Friday that the Son of God was killed should be Bad rather than a Good one. But as Jeremy Bentham, a great philosopher, in his famous philosophy said: if the consequences of any action is to the benefit (happiness) of the greater number of the people in the society, then the action can be said to be GOOD. Without any shadow of doubt, I dare to say that the Friday is indeed good. God’s son- Jesus died so that you and I might have life and have it more abundantly. If not for this gesture, we will all be dead now.
On Sunday, we’ll celebrating Easter. Let me start by asking. Which is more important- Christmas or Easter? Don’t be too quick to reply because you’ll agree with me that if He weren’t born in the first place, He wouldn’t have died. In the same vein what if He was born and did not die?
Some say that Christ did not say we should celebrate Easter. To such people, need I tell them that Christ also did no say we shouldn’t. Since they agree that He was born is enough.
Some don’t even eat meat on Good Friday. "Chei! If u eat meat, na Jesus Flesh u dey eat".
Haba!
"Let me ask them a quesion: if u eat meat any other day , which person flesh u dey eat?"
As we celebrate this Easter, let’s put one thing at the back of our mind. Christ is the reason for the season. So let’s not cut Him out of the groove.
Wishing you a wonderful Good Friday, Violent-free Election Saturday and a Blessed Easter Sunday.
HAPPY EASTER!!!
