2. We have set aside a day we
call "Good Friday" to
remember the death and
burial of Jesus Christ, the
Son of God.
We remember because it is only by His Shed
Blood that men and women can be saved from sin
and from hell and receive eternal life with God.

3. But our greatest joy is that Jesus did not stay
in the grave, but was raised from the dead in
the Power of God's Holy Spirit.
John 20 1 The first day of the
week cometh Mary Magda-
lene early, when it was yet
dark, unto the sepulcher, and
seeth the stone taken away
from the sepulcher.
3
4. 2 Then she runneth, and
cometh to Simon Peter, and
to the other disciple (John),
whom Jesus loved, and
saith unto them, They have
taken away the Lord out of
the sepulcher, and we know
not where they have laid
Him. 3 Peter therefore went
forth, and that other
disciple, and came to the
sepulcher.
4
5. 4 So they ran both together: and the
other disciple did outrun Peter, and
came first to the sepulcher. 5 And he
stooping down, and looking in, saw
the linen clothes lying; yet went he
not in. 6 Then cometh Simon Peter
following him, and went into the
sepulcher, and seeth the linen clothes
lie, 7 And the napkin, that was about
his head, not lying with the linen
clothes, but wrapped together in a
place by itself.
5
6. 8 Then went in also that other
disciple, which came first to
the sepulcher, and he saw,
and believed. 9 For as yet
they knew (understood) not
the Scripture, that He must

sepulcher weeping: and as she
wept, she stooped down, and looked

8. 14 And when she had thus
said, she turned herself
back, and saw Jesus
standing, and knew not that it
was Jesus. 15 Jesus saith unto
her, Woman, why weepest thou?
whom seekest thou?
She, supposing Him to be the
gardener, saith unto Him, Sir, if
Thou have borne Him
hence, tell me where Thou hast
laid Him, and I will take Him
away. 8
9. 16 Jesussaith unto her, Mary.
She turned herself, and saith
unto him, Rabboni; which is
to say, Master. 17 Jesus saith
unto her, Touch Me not; for I
am not yet ascended to My
Father: but go to My brethren,
and say unto them, I ascend
unto My Father, and your Jesus had said, "My
Father; and to My God, and sheep will hear My
your God. Voice and follow
Me.” John 10:27

10. 18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that
she had seen the Lord, and that He had spoken
these things unto her.
Mary Magdalene and some other women were the
first to be sent to tell of Jesus’ resurrection.
Luke 24 11 And their (the women’s) words seemed
to them as idle tales, and they believed them not.

11. John 20:19 Thenthe same day at evening, being the
first day of the week, when the doors were shut
where the disciples were assembled for fear of the
Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith
unto them, Peace be unto you. 20 And when He had
so said, He shewed unto them His hands and His
side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw
the Lord.
11
12. 21 Then said Jesus to them
again, Peace be unto you: as
My Father hath sent Me, even
so send I you. 22 And when He
had said this, He breathed on
them, and saith unto
them, Receive ye the Holy
Ghost:* 23 Whose soever sins
ye remit, they are remitted
unto them; and whose soever Only God can forgive

13. 24 But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus,
was not with them when Jesus came. 25 The other
disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the
Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in
His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger
into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into
His side, I will not believe.
He just wanted what they already had.
Why didn't Thomas see when the others saw?
He did not meet with them that Sunday night.
He had gone off on his own. 13
14. 26 And after eight days again
His disciples were within, and
Thomas with them: then came
Jesus, the doors being shut, and
stood in the midst, and said,
Peace be unto you. 27 Then
saith He to Thomas, Reach

15. 28 And Thomas answered
and said unto Him, My

saith unto
him, Thomas, because thou
hast seen Me, thou hast
believed: blessed are they
(we) that have not seen, and
yet have believed.
Faith honors God, and God honors faith

16. 30 And many other signs
truly did Jesus in the
presence of His
disciples, which are not
written in this book: 31 But
these are written, that ye
might believe that Jesus is
the Christ, the Son of God; There is no other

17. Every person must acknowledge
that he is a sinner,
without hope of eternal life.
He must realize and believe that
he needs a Savior.
He can't pay for his own sins, but
Jesus paid the debt for him.
Jesus died in our place, for our sins, so that we
may have eternal life through His Name.
My sins and your sins hung Jesus on that cross.
17
18. The Shed Blood of Jesus Christ is the only thing
that will wash away our sins.
If you believe the Truth, the Gospel of Jesus
Christ: that Jesus is the Holy Son of God;
If you believe that He came to this earth, born
of a virgin, to live as a man, yet without sin;
If you believe that He gave His life, shedding
His Blood for you;
If you believe that Jesus was raised from the
dead on the third day;
18
19. All that remains for you to do is to ask.
Pray a prayer something like this:
Dear Heavenly Father, I come to You in the
Name of Your Son, Jesus Christ.
I want to be born of Your Spirit into Your family.
I ask You to forgive me of my sins, washing them
away in the Blood of Jesus.
Lord, be merciful to me a sinner and save me from
the bondage of sin and the torments of hell.
I thank You Lord for my salvation. Amen.
19
20. If you sincerely prayed that prayer,
You are a born again child of the Living God.
Your sins are forgiven; you are cleansed.
Your testimony can be as simple as:
"I love the Lord and thank God for saving me."
