What's so good about "Good Friday"?
Transcript
So, have you ever heard the phrase, what's so good about Good Friday? I kind of like that question. I can remember really quite vividly, maybe as a third grader and long, long before I knew very much about Jesus, that when I heard about Good Friday from one of my Catholic grade school friends, I asked quite specifically, what is Good Friday? As that was a new thing for me.
And I thought, oh, cool, this is going to be a Good Friday, apparently, this Friday. Maybe that means cake or games or a swimming pool or something. And I kind of wanted in on that, everybody wants in on a Good Friday. And so that kind of sounded good.
More Kingdom Offerings
Our acts of kindness, done in the name of Jesus, with the purpose of serving and blessing others also serve to lay aside treasures in heaven that glorify and exalt our King. This constitutes the kingdom coming on earth as it is in heaven - we become the answer to the Lord’s prayer.
God's economy of spiritual profit, which He's interested in, is not based on anything that has a worldly value associated with it.
