The Good in Good Friday
Came with an old rugged cross
One of the cruelest forms of torture for common criminals then
The Good in Good Friday
Came in the form of a Man
The Son of God who descended from Heaven to earth
The Good in Good Friday
Came on the darkest day in history
When mankind crucified the Son of God
on that old rugged cross.

“If you are the Son of God, save yourself,” mockers cried.
Christ didn’t save himself.
He died to save us from ourselves.
He conquered Death so we are freed from the shackles of sin and death.
The Good in Good Friday
doesn’t end with the cross
For that would be no good.
Instead, it led to an empty tomb
The cross -an instrument of death –
Became a mark of victory.
The Good in Good Friday
Comes because our Saviour lives
