Good Friends, We walk by faith with our Lord Jesus through the events of Holy Week.
Yesterday evening, the altar was stripped and we moved out in the darkness of the Sanctuary, somber and pondering the Cross that looms on Golgotha.
Good Friday services today at 12:10pm and 7:00pm will be our undoing as we are confronted with the hideous reality of the Son of God crying out from and dying on that Cross. The Strepitus will alarm and stun us with the reality of the power of God’s Law which cries out for Sin’s ultimate punishment: death. But instead of the sinners there is Jesus the sinless Son of God taking our place. God’s righteousness is satisfied in that death of His One and Only Son, Jesus.
The Easter Vigil on Saturday at 6:00PM, and the Easter Celebrations at 6:30, 8:00, 9:30, and 11:00AM will usher us out of the darkness of the shadow of death into the brilliance of the Risen One.
Thanks be to God! –trz
