I worded my question this way to see how people would respond, some good, some not so good, but made them think.

I agree with some of you, I was playing a mine game on non-believers, like so many here like to do to us. Maybe I should have worded my question another way.

I am glad that Jesus was obedient even to the point of death on the cross. I can not even imagine what he went through,physically,mentally,and spirittually.
Body ripped to shreds, with whips laced with sharp objects, by professionally brutal men. Beard torn from his face. Beaten and spit on. Long 3-4'' thorns jammed into his scalp. Humiliated,mocked. Spikes,(not nails) driven into both of his wrists,and both of his feet. Denied just a sip of water. Rejected by the Father, and ultimately suffocating to death(some scholars believe) not being able to lift his torso high enough to take a breath because of total exhaustion.
Yes, It was a great day for you and I.

There is no actual proof that Jesus was in fact nailed to a cross, that was all written down sometime later. The Gospel according to Mark was written several decades later, and he wasn't an eye witness to the event. I believe that Jesus actually walked this earth, and was a really decent fellow who had some very great ideas about how we could lead our lives in order to make this world a better place. "Faith Based" religion, like Judaism, Christianity and Islam are just that, faith based, and have very little to do with actual history which has been proven time and again.
My question for you is, you claim you were playing mind games with the non-believers, and if you are Christian as you say, which means you should be living your life in a Christ-like fashion, how do you think Jesus would feel if you were playing mind games, which is deceitful at best?....For shame!!!!

They got here at the same time to interrupt bread= they had a meal at the same time & it replaced into saturday evening the 1st day of the week & as paul replaced into leaving interior the morning they took the possibility to have a time of coaching. i do no longer see any communion there, the church has been brainwashed to study what the ministers software into you. initiate questioning for your self, I did after 27 years of this type of stuff & am I ever happy I did. SDA stick to the Sabbath Day it relatively is the seventh Day & is saturday on the western calendar. The Lord's Supper as people term it quite is Passover & is to be performed as quickly as a year, with the 7 days of unleavened bread.

It was a Great Day to be sure, commemorated through the centuries by millions.
I may not use the word happy to describe the day. Just as I would not use happy to describe D-Day 1944 another Great Day. :)
The greatness of both those days came at a high price, so I would prefer to remember both with sombriety rather than happiness.

It was the most terrible day in history - when mankind murdered its Creator.
It was the most wonderful day in history - when the true nature of God was demonstrated before all creation, destroying the power of the Slanderer, Satan and destroying the claim he had against all mankind, which was the guilt of violated law.
Still I am glad it wasn't the end of the story !

Yes I do agree....By His willingness to allow that to happen (He layed down His life for us), the door to salvation is now opened. We can now be healed, enjoy prosperity and good health, boldly approach The Throne of Grace, and He now can live in our hearts because of The Holy Spirit. PEACE!!!

It was a victory over Satan - a price Jesus knew He would have to pay if ALL were to have the chance of salvation. It was a Victorious day - one I am grateful for.

i am quite happy that God gave us this salvation, although perhaps I would of worded it a bit different. Comes across a little harsh huh. Yes sad truth it is His own people denied Him. And yes it was a part of Gods new covenant to us.

he didn't need to die that way eventhough on the third day he resurected,his message would have reach the world because he he was extraordinary .nailing him on the cross proved only one thing that on earth the only savagebeeings are the human beeings.

No.
Are you insane? Why would anyone think that the day someone is tortured to death is a good day?
By the gods, and you say that Atheists and non Christians are terrible. None of us wish that kind of horror on anyone.
