Two of the greatest events in history:
Good Friday – Jesus died to forgive the sins of all who would believe in Him!

One of the things I noticed over the years when reading the account of the passion, death, and resurrection of our Lord is how no unbeliever ever saw him after his resurrection. Jesus made special promises to see Peter and the other disciples, but there is no mention of any Roman king, guard, or any of the general Judean public seeing him.…
