Friday, April 22, 2011: (Good Friday)
Jesus said: “My people, this day that you honor is the culmination of My redemption of all mankind. I took on a human nature so I could suffer everything that you suffer in this life, and ultimately out of love, I gave up My life to ransom your souls from your sins. This is why it is so important to have a large crucifix in the center of the altar, so you can remember how much I love all of you. Many have come to believe in Me, and these feast days honoring My death and Resurrection, are the most solemn of holy days. Give praise and thanks to Me for dying for your sins. You can show your love for Me by following My Commandments so you can keep your soul pure and united with Me. Even if you should fall into sin, I will forgive you in Confession. Now, you will wait until the third day for My Resurrection, even as I foretold this to My apostles. It is My Resurrection that gives hope to every person for everyone’s opportunity to be resurrected one day.”
