Good Friday 2014: Top 10 Quotes and Five Texts to Share with Family and Friends about Jesus Christ's Crucifixion

Christians around the world will observe Good Friday on 18 April.

Good Friday, is observed on the Friday before Easter Sunday, and is a commemoration of the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, and the suffering that led up to that historic moment.

Christians consider Good Friday to be one of the most solemn holy days of the year, and many more-devout Christians spend the day reflecting on the passion of Christ, and the idea that he gave his life for mankind.

Good Friday marks the slaying of our Jesus
The unblemished lamb, the perfect sacrifice.
He took our guilt and blame upon Himself
So we could be with Him in paradise.

He showed us the way
He has long been gone
And yet in our hearts
His name shines on.
Wish u a Holy Friday

May The Glory Of Our Saviour
Strengthen You And May
His Graces Shine Upon You
On Good Friday And Always!
Happy Good Friday

When You face problems in life,
don't ask God to take them away.
Ask Him to show His purpose,
Ask ways how to live a day searching his purpose for You.
Happy Good Friday

May on this Good Friday we start it with
Fasting and Prayers so that we can bring
God's mercy and forgiveness on all mankind
Lets Pray together.
