Why Is Good Friday Called "Good"?

- Today is Good Friday...so for a day we commemorate what is in one sense the most tragic day in Christian history, why do we call it "good"? This is the day Jesus - the Lion of Judah - was slaughtered like a lamb. He was mocked, tortured, and killed. In this video I'm unpacking why as Christians we call the day of Jesus' crucifixion "good," and what is is we're TRULY celebrating on Good Friday. 🤍

My favorite song to celebrate Resurrection Sunday is "Living Hope" by Phil Wickham. As for Good Friday, I love the song "How Deep the Father's Love For Us"...highly recommend listening today and remembering what Jesus did for us 🤍 and here is the Good Friday spoken word I mentioned: ruclips.net/video/FzxXvEtf9D0/видео.html

John 3:16-21💝
This is my first Easter since I was saved.
Amen!
Amen! Jesus didn’t deserve to die, He CHOSE to because He loves us 🥺💗
Happy Good Friday, sister 😃! I did a bible study on Isaiah 53 this morning. It was SO GOOD! It's made very clear that Jesus is The Messiah and bore God's wrath, took the punishment WE deserved and out of His grace and mercy, we are saved through what Jesus did for us on the cross and believe in what He said.. "It is finished." Thank you Jesus! 🤍
Up from the grave he arose, and rise again by Dallas
Since Passover and Easter are drawing near, I will expose the false preachers and religions, especially Catholicism, who wickedly promote and believe that Jesus was crucified on a Friday and if you are believing this lie then you also know very little about God and scripture.
Because many lack knowledge of scripture they cannot comprehend the important and explicit clues that John related in his gospel in regard to the Crucifixion and the Sabbath. This ignorance of truth certainly applies to the pagan cult known as Catholicism since they are one of the many false religions that claim that Jesus was crucified on a Friday and this is why many false Christians choose to celebrate what is known today as Good Friday.
Many false preachers are clearly overlooking that the first day of Passover was considered a Sabbath day to the children of Israel since it was a day of holy convocation and no manner of work was to be done. So it was basically no different than the weekly Sabbath that God commanded the children of Israel to observe every Friday evening. You also need to understand that in a particular year when the Passover Sabbath would begin on a Thursday evening, this was then considered a high day Sabbath or a special Sabbath to the children of Israel since they would now have to recognize two Sabbath days in a row.
“‘Six days shall work be done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, a holy convocation. You shall do no work on it; it is the Sabbath of the Lord in all your dwellings.”
Leviticus 23:3 NKJV
Now to prove how the special feasts of God were to be treated no differently then the regular Sabbath and that no work was to be done, all we need to do is read what was related in Leviticus 23. Take notice that in the Leviticus 23:23-25 scriptures below, it clearly relates that a holy convocation also included a sabbath rest.
”Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the children of Israel, saying: ‘In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you shall have a SABBATH-REST, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, a holy convocation. You shall do no customary work on it; and you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord.’ ”
Leviticus 23:23-25 NKJV
“‘These are the feasts of the Lord, holy convocations which you shall proclaim at their appointed times. On the fourteenth day of the first month at twilight is the Lord’s Passover. And on the fifteenth day of the same month is the Feast of Unleavened Bread to the Lord; seven days you must eat unleavened bread. On the first day you shall have a holy convocation; you shall do no customary work on it. But you shall offer an offering made by fire to the Lord for seven days. The seventh day shall be a holy convocation; you shall do no customary work on it.’ ”
Leviticus 23:4-8 NKJV
Now God commanded the Israelites to keep His Passover on the fourteenth day of the first month at twilight and the first month of the year on God’s religious calendar is called Nisan or Abib and it begins in the spring and not in the winter as our current new year does. So because scripture relates that Jesus celebrated Passover at His Last Supper with His disciples many are falsely assuming that Jesus was crucified on Nisan 15 and not on Nisan 14 and that His Last Supper had to occur on a Thursday night since He was crucified on the day of Preparation. Now before I go on, I need you to understand that God commanded the Israelites to always celebrate His Passover but there was actually a period when the children of Israel stopped keeping God’s Passover. (See 2 Kings 23:21-23.)
Since the tribes of Israel had stopped keeping the Passover you can read where King Hezekiah and Josiah reinstated the Passover celebration in 2 Chronicles 30 and 35. They now chose to have the people celebrate God’s Passover at the second temple instead of at their homes since they wanted to make sure that the Israelites would stay loyal to God and His commands. So even though they reinstated the Passover celebration they actually were ignoring God’s command since they now started a tradition where many would celebrate God’s Passover at their homes on the beginning of Nisan 14 and then at the second temple in Jerusalem at the end of Nisan 14.
Now because the gospels are relating that Jesus was buried on Preparation day, many false preachers and religions are ignorantly assuming that this meant that the crucifixion had to occur on a Friday, since this is the day that the Jewish people would normally begin their preparation for the weekly Sabbath that began every Friday evening. Further below I will definitely prove where their ignorance of scripture has led false preachers and religions astray but first I want you to understand that the Jewish calendar months are completely different then the Gregorian calendar that we currently use, and that the Jewish day actually ends once it becomes dark and not at midnight as our world is accustomed to.
So in order to start proving why the crucifixion did not occur on a Friday I will begin by revealing how the gospel of John related some very important information that many deceived believers are not comprehending.
First, take notice where John related in 13:1-3 that Jesus celebrated His Last Supper before the Feast of Passover and then understand that John was referencing the Passover celebration that would occur at the temple at twilight on Nisan 14.
“NOW BEFORE THE FEAST OF PASSOVER, when Jesus knew that His hour had come that He should depart from this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end. And supper being ended, the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray Him, Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come from God and was going to God,”
John 13:1-3 NKJV
Next, I will reveal a couple of scripture verses where John related that when Jesus was crucified it occurred during a year where the Passover Sabbath was going to occur the day before the weekly Sabbath. This would mean that you would have two Sabbath days occurring back to back and since you now had a special Sabbath occurring on Thursday evening this then meant that no work could be done on either Friday or Saturday. So since the Jewish people could do no work once their Friday began (our Thursday at nightfall), this then meant that the day of Preparation would now fall on a Thursday instead of its normal Friday. Once again, take note that when you had a Feast Day Sabbath occurring the day before the weekly Sabbath this was then called a special Sabbath or a HIGH DAY Sabbath by the Jewish people.
”Therefore, because it was the Preparation Day, that the bodies should not remain on the cross on the Sabbath (FOR THAT SABBATH WAS A HIGH DAY), the Jews asked Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.”
John 19:31 NKJV
”Then they led Jesus from Caiaphas to the Praetorium, and it was early morning. But they themselves did not go into the Praetorium, lest they should be defiled, but that they might eat the Passover.”
John 18:28 NKJV
So notice how John 19:31 related that the Sabbath that was going to occur later that evening was a HIGH DAY SABBATH. This meant that it had to be the Passover Sabbath and not the weekly Sabbath as many false preachers and religions are wrongly teaching. This is also why John 18:28 is relating how the Pharisees did not want to defile themselves on the day that Jesus was crucified since they were desiring to partake in the Passover meal that would occur at the end of that day at the temple. So since John clearly related in scripture that Jesus was crucified on the day of Preparation and he stated that this was the day before a HIGH DAY SABBATH Sabbath then the crucifixion definitely had to occur on a Thursday, otherwise God and scripture would be lying to us.
Lastly, in order to fulfill what Jesus related in the Matthew 12 scripture where He stated that He would spend three days and three nights in the heart of the earth here is a time recap of the Last Supper, the Crucifixion and His Resurrection and a complete breakdown of the three days and the three nights that Jesus spent in the heart of the earth. On Wednesday night as Nisan 14 begins this is when Jesus had His Last Supper with His Disciples. Then on Thursday morning which was still Nisan 14 Jesus is crucified at 9 in the morning and He dies on the cross at 3 in the afternoon. Jesus is then buried just before sundown on Thursday evening before the Passover Sabbath celebration begins. Jesus then of course rises from the grave early Sunday morning which is now Nisan 17.
Thursday Night #1 - Passover Sabbath Begins
Friday Day #1 - Passover Sabbath Ends At Sundown
Friday Night #2 - Weekly Sabbath Begins
Saturday Day #2 - Weekly Sabbath Ends At Sundown
Saturday Night #3
Sunday Day #3 - Jesus Is Resurrected
“For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the great fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.”
Matthew 12:40 NKJV
So Jesus died on the cross on Thursday Nisan 14 at 3 in the afternoon which was around the time that they began slaughtering the lambs that were needed to celebrate the Passover at the temple and this is why Jesus was known as the Lamb of God who was sacrificed for our sins.
Happy Good Friday because He is Risen! 🌿
I thank God every day for his son Jesus who died to save me from my sins. Amen

Thank you for making this devotional! 🤍 Recently, been loving With You (Resurrection) by Women Who Worship.
For Good Friday, I’ve always loved “Before the Throne” and grew up singing “In the Shadow of the Glorious Cross” by Sojourn. For Easter, Shane & Shane’s version of “The Lord is My Salvation” is easily one of my favorites!
Dearest Kaci,
You are truly so very beautiful from your heart. You are sweet, gentle and full of the brightest light. You are so pure and loving and full of grace. You make everyday a little bit more beautiful, magical and happier. It is an honor and a blessed privilege to walk this road to heaven alongside you. Your endless love for Jesus is so inspiring and contagious. Thank you for endlessly reminding me that each moment and each day we are given is a precious gift from Jesus and to live each breathe to the absolute fullest. I am so thankful that I found your channel a few years ago and decided to subscribe. You inspire me so very much. I hope that you and Tyler and Judah have the most beautiful and blessed Good Friday and Easter with your loved ones. 🌻💛

One of favorites (for resurrection songs) is, "The Rising of the Son" by the McKameys
My favorite song for Resurrection Sunday is They Didnt Know - Kurt Carr
This is so good! Thanks for mentioning 👌🏿
I love “Just as Good” by Chris Renzema.
Reckless love
Christ our king, Passion 🙏🏾
My favorite song to celebrate Resurrection Sunday is “Raise a hallelujah” by Bethel Music
My favorite resurrection song is "He's Alive", recorded by Dolly Parton. I love how it describes the desolation Peter felt at denying Jesus three times and his elation when he realizes He is alive and he is forgiven.
David Phelps sings that song too
Right on, Resurrection Sunday instead of easter Sunday!🙏🏻
Kaci, I have recently discovered your channel. I love all the content that I've seen so far (still working my way through all your videos - lol!!) You always glow with the love of the Father. I want you to look more into the timeframe of when Jesus was actually crucified, then died. He said specifically that as Jonah was in the belly of the fish for "3 days and 3 nights" so will He be. Saying Jesus died on Good Friday is incorrect. If by this counting to get to Resurrection Sunday - it would only be 2 nights and technically 2 days. If you remember in Genesis God says from sunset to sunset is one day, so the 1st day starts this evening - So Friday night is the first night -- then Saturday morning is first day - - then Saturday night will be 2nd night -- then Sunday morning is first day.
My favorite song is Because He Lives I Can Face Tomorrow.
❤
Song 🎼 Praise ft Brandon Lake, Chris Brown & Chandler Moore 🥰
I strengthened my faith in Jesus through (GodLogic Apologetics) channel and (Kaci nicole) channel.Thanks God for the blessing of these channels.
Praise God! I'm honored and humbled to know He has used my videos in your life 🙏🏼
I love “King of Kings” 🥰
Friday is the sixth day of the week reminded us of our CREATION AND REDEMPTION.
FRIDAY IS ALSO CALLED PREPARATION SABBATH DAY.
GOD BLESS YOU
yes! and Jesus kept the Sabbath even in death which is why He rose on sunday. this doesnt make sunday special, it makes the Sabbath even more significant because He glorified His Father n Creation etc even in His lowest weakest state. hard to explain cuz im not good with words, but thank you for pointing out that the "goodness" of friday has always been because it is prep for the holy Sabbath NOT because some pope deemed it a holy day!!!
Like good video
Sister, You are from which country?
Resurrection Blood by Cody Carnes 👌🏿
Kaci how is that Jesus like Jonah in whalebelly spent in sheol 3 days and 3 nights if good is friday( jewish saturday already)sunday dawn He wasnt found in the tomb. Are you sure He was crucified on fri?
Nope, He was our Passover Lamb, and was risen on First Fruits as a Wave Offering before God.
Redeemed by blood the Lamb
Christ The Lord is Risen Today. Lol. That’s the only one we sing in church

Listen carefully HolySpirit is speaking to you now.
I Am (AlmightyJesus) only the Holy Father, HolySon and Holy Spirit in the Trinity mode forever Amen.
I Am the I Am (AlmightyJesus), the true everlasting God, who created all heavens and earth. I myself sent my HolySpirit down to the earth in Virgin mother Mary womb, which latter became human flesh and called as kingChrist, who lived holy unsinful life, revealed about Myself, about My promises, My expectations from human beings, My Wrath against disobedience, unholy & unrighteousness people and finally sacrificed his life in the Holy cross to save mankind from all the worldly sins.
Truly blessed are those who believe that I Am (AlmightyJesus) - the HolyFather, HolySpirit & HolySon forever. For My HolySpirit dwelt in the earth as KingChrist in human form.
Be wise and select only genuine righteous people in the earth and preach the Gospel as much as you can till the last breath of your life.
Do not worry you are special to Me and I will reward you greatly in heaven My dear precious child.
Good Friday is translation only in English. Which is not very nice and right and dosnt give the real sense of the meaning. In the other lenguages the day is: Sad, Black , Holly, Grief .. Secondly : no-one celebrating it, but the day commemorates , marks the Passion of Christ and preceding the celebration of Easter Sunday.
she's catholic!
Try not to use the word Truth and Bible in the same sentence.....it makes you look foolish.
Biblical TRUTH..... According to scripture, there is no such thing as Good Friday. The Feasts ordained by God FOREVER, were all to foretell His coming and help us to remember Him and Honor God. PASSOVER is His sacrifice, First Fruits is the RESURRECTION, and Unleavened Bread is a week of Worship and Fellowship praising our Sinless Savior! Why do YOU KEEP MADE UP HOLIDAYS? They are false worship created by a Roman Catholic Pope.
It's a sacred tradition for us, Catholics. Do you know better than the Church Fathers? Some say Good Friday was observed since 100 AD
@@luiscid1900 It's a "tradition of men," and not ordained by God. How do I KNOW BETTER? Sir. it is not me OR CHURCH FATHER'S who we are to follow, but GOD ALONE, and HIS WORD, that became our Salvation in the OBEDIENT ONE, Jesus. The LAWLESS one is the one who changed God's LAWS and appointed TIMES..... 18 "Dear children, this is the last hour; and as you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour. 19 They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us; but their going showed that none of them belonged to us."
@Shuwshan 'Emeq Then why did Jesus give to St. Peter the keys to Heaven, whatever he binds on Earth, it binds on Heaven, and whatever he looses on Earth, it looses on Heaven. Jesus' teaching had pass on through word of mouth due to the fact the Bible wasn't complete and wasn't written on paper until a few hundred years later......
Soooooooooo brainwashed. to think that day was " GOOD"
Amen!
❤️
Amen!
Amen!
