Thousand of years ago, the
destiny of our world had been revamp. A significant undo was proclaimed as sins
vanished through the reign of our faith, centuries had been separated, education, humility,
compassion and forgiveness was unfold. His love and sacrifice was observed around the world.
Yes! All of us know him. He is Jesus Christ.
Christianity derived Jesus
Christ as their only way for salvation. They believe that being away from him,
is a constant hell here on Earth. He is an orthodox of God, Father, King, King
of Kings, Life, Love, and more. Every words that can describe goodness is running on him and
through him.
Every year, we mourn on
the day of Jesus Christ's crucifixion and death at Calvary. It is called Good
Friday. The holiday is
observed during Holy Week as part of the Paschal Triduum or The Three Days on the Friday preceding
Easter Sunday, and may coincide with the Jewish observance of Passover. It is
also known as Holy Friday, Great Friday, Black Friday or Easter Friday, though
the last term properly refers to the Friday in Easter week.
In the Philippines, The
annual lenten season is on the last week of March, or the 1st week
of April. In overwhelmingly Roman Catholic Philippines, the day is recognized
with road parades, the Way of the Cross, the droning of the Pasyón, and
exhibitions of the Senákulo or Passion play. A few fans take part in self-whipping
and even have themselves crucified as articulations of atonement in spite of
wellbeing issues and solid objection from the Church because they believe that
when doing things like that, their sins will be vanish.
Church chimes are not rung
and Masses are not commended, while TV and radio have shorter hours of broadcast. After three o'clock toward the
evening (the time at which Jesus is generally accepted to have passed on), the
dependable revere the cross in the neighborhood church and take after the
parade of the Burial of Jesus. The picture of the dead Christ is then laid in
state to be adored, and infrequently treated as per nearby internment
traditions. In Cebu and numerous parts of the Visayan Islands, individuals more
often than not eat binignit and biko as a type of fasting.
Old beliefs is still penetrating others mind,
specially conservative Filipinos. My grandmother always told me that after
three o’ clock towards the evening, I shall not take a shower, for the spirit of
water is dead, because it was created by
God. I shall not go outside because demons are everywhere, for Jesus is dead. I
shall not let myself hurt, because it will not heal, for my skin is dead. But
the most unforgettable is “Wag’ ka munang kumain sa mga kakanin na niluto ko’
kasi kung wala ka pang halad sa mga santo, mahihiwid ang iyong pagmumukha” When
I heard her saying that, I dropped the plate on table. It was creepy though. I
don’t want to have a dostorted face.
Good Friday must be a
happy holiday, and we must say Thank you, for Jesus Christ sacrificed his own
life for us to be saved from the misery of hell and to get an everlastiong life
from heaven, with our God Almighty and his lamb. We must not locked ourselves
from wrong beliefs that every year Jesus Christ will die and rise again. He
died and rose two-thousand years ago and now He is alive, preparing for his
comeback as he stated on The Book of Revelation.
