What's Good About Good Friday?

So often children will question their parents when they are told to do something. On Good Friday, God's son Jesus also questioned His father regarding something He had to do.

Jesus asked His father if He could be spared, from the pain and separation, at the crucifixion He was to experience. But because, He knew it was His father's will, He obeyed Him.

Yes, when Jesus obeyed His father, it was good for all of us. Because He provided the way of salvation for us. And that was through His crucifixion and resurrection that took place at Calvary. That's what is good about Good Friday.
