JOHN 3:16-18
What's Good About Good Friday?

This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed;

By believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life. God didn't go to all the trouble of sending his son merely to point an accusing finger, telling the world how bad it was. He came to help, to put the world right again. The Message//Remix

The original Good Friday showed us the depth of God's love for us. He made a way for us out of sin and into His presence when we believe Jesus is God and trust that what He did is sufficient to make us right with God.
