It’s Friday, but...

I

t’s Good Friday today and the newscasters this morning raised the question: “Why do Christians actually celebrate the death of the founder of their religion?” What a wonderful question. What a wonderful answer! What a glorious Savior!

To quote Tony Campolo: “It’s Friday, but Sunday’s coming!”

My non-Christian acquaintances and coworkers have questioned how I could believe such outlandish things as the claim that Jesus died and rose again from the dead. They have likened it to believing in UFOs or conspiracy theories. None of them liken it to believing that humans are descendant from tadpoles, but that’s another matter we should not be distracted by right now.

So on this Good Friday when, yes, I am celebrating Jesus’ death on the cross, I present to you an answer to the question.

Here’s Voddie Baucham—a much more eloquent man than I, answering why he chooses to believe the claims of the Bible. We’re jumping into the middle of his talk, but I’m bringing you in where things really start to get exciting.

But Sunday’s coming!
