Blessed Good Friday ✝️

"For why did Christ, when as yet we were weak, according to the time, die for the ungodly?
For scarce for a just man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man some one would dare to die.
But God commandeth his charity towards us; because when as yet we were sinners, according to the time,
Christ died for us; much more therefore, being now justified by his blood, shall we be saved from wrath through him.
For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son; much more, being reconciled, shall we be saved by his life."

Romans 5:6-10
