Good Friday

Today is Good Friday, this is the first time in my life that I ever know what Good Friday was about. Today a long time ago Jesus died for our sins, and proved how nuch he loved all of us.
It makes me think of bible study on wedsnday we read Luke chapter 22 through 24, and its amazing everytime I read or hear anything from Luke somthimg new sticks in my head. Luke 23; 32-43
Jesus is placed on the cross
" Two other men, both crimanals, were also led out with him to be executed. When they came to the place called the skull, there they crucifid him, along with the criminals- one on the right the other on his left. Jesus said " Father forgive them , forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing." And they divided up his clothes by casting lots.
The people stood wacthing and the rulers even sneered at him. They said " H saved others; let him save himself if he is the christ of god, the chosen one."
The soilders also came up and mocked him. They offered him wine vineger and said "If uou are the king of the Jews, save yourself."
There was a written notice above him, which read : THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
One of the criminals who hung ther hurled insults at him: " Aren't you the Christ? Save your self and us."
But the other criminal rebuked him. " Dont you fear God?" he said " Since your under the same sentence? We are punished justly for we are getting what our deeds deserve. But this man has done nothing wrong."
Then he said " Jesus, remember me when you come into your kingdom." Jesus answered him " I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise." "

Wow that really spoak to me.
