Geee Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Washington Examiner This week, Christians give special remembrance to the final events of Jesus’s life. Called Holy Week, the period begins with Christ’s entrance into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, includes the institution of Holy Communion on Maundy Thursday, turns to Christ’s death on Good Friday, and ends with Holy Saturday. These events then all lead to Easter Sunday, where the faithful celebrate Christ’s resurrection from the dead. The intense shifts between Palm Sunday, Good Friday, and Easter Sunday could give one whiplash. They also involve an important political, in addition to theological, teaching. :snip: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valin Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Quote If the story stopped there, or focused on the politics of the Roman Empire, it might be seen as a footnote teaching future politicians But it Wasn't. @Geee Ya know the 1st time Jesus came Everybody Knew exactly where, how it was going to happen, and Why, What Messiah was going to do. Everybody was WRONG. Now we see books/films/sermons about The 2nd coming and I see the same thing. I have a sneaking suspicion (once again) Everybody is WRONG. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
