Good Friday

Annotations:

• Christians believe Jesus, also known as Christ, was the son of God. In fact God choosing to live on earth in human form. He lived a perfectly good life, taught people, performed miricles and finally died at the hands of man. Christians believe that Christ's death has the power to save everybody from their sins, for all the wrong things they have done in their life. Those who believe in Jesus and put their faith in him are accepted by God and their sins are forgiven
